Chess

About This Event

Chess every Wednesday at Valade Park with Wise Guys Chess Club. All ages and experience levels welcome.

What to Expect

• 1.You’ll meet players of all ages and skill levels, and Wise Guys Chess Club volunteers are happy to help beginners get their bearings.
• 2.It’s outdoors in Valade Park, so bring water, sunscreen, and a hat; expect a casual park vibe with variable shade.
• 3.If you own a chess set, bring it; there are usually boards and clocks available, but arriving a bit early helps you grab a table.
• 4.Parking nearby is street-based—plan a few extra minutes to find a spot and walk to the park’s gathering area.
• 5.The mood is welcoming and low-pressure: watch a few games, ask for tips, and jump in when you’re ready.
