 Hi, folks.


It is time for our annual Extravaganza evening in memory of our dear friend, Jim Hanson, who used to run it for us.

It will consist of 4 rounds with 15 minutes each on the clock.

We hope to have prizes for all (donations of prizes accepted).

Do join us - 7.30 pm SHARP - Wednesday 24th November.


There will also be a nice chess set (pieces and board) for sale - proceeds to the club.

Also a reminder that annual subs are now due!

See you soon,
Stephen.​
