ANCC is under way!

We have had a couple of chess nights now, and are officially under way!  A couple of younger players and a couple of adult players have attended, and have said they will continue to do so.  The younger players are not push overs, and one of the younger players played an experienced adult player to a draw!

Come on out and join us!  All players are welcome to come early for a 'social hour' upstairs in the Turner club area, where the kitchen is open and players can eat and socialize.  Turners is a wonderful venue, and I wish to keep their great generosity of donating the downstairs banquet room for ANCC, and patronizing their establishment will help in doing just that.

ANCC has sets to use, however we do not have clocks yet.  I (Darin Link) can provide a couple, but please bring a clock if you intend to use one. 

We play from 7 to whenever.  Lately, I and another player have stayed until 11pm or a little after.  You can play a serious game, or two, or shorter games if you wish!  The kitchen stays open to 8pm upstairs, so you can order up to that time.  The bar upstairs always has pizza, a few kind of pretzels, nachos, and wings so you can always get food even after 8pm.  Naturally, whatever you care to drink from soft beverages up, is available as well.

Looking forward to seeing new players!
