Friends Seeks "Chess-perts"

The Friends is seeking chess masters to share their knowledge of the game with elementary school children as part of the library's after school programming. 

From general principles to maneuvers and strategy, the children will need to be taught the nuts and bolts of the game. While some of the children participated in last year's program, they are all novices. 

The Friends needs volunteers to make the program a success and is hoping to tap into the expertise of those in the community.

The chess program will be held on Thursday afternoons, with one session from 3:30 to 4:30 and one from 4:30 to 5:30.

For more information or to volunteer, please contact Lorie Linnell at 508-785-9766 or lorielinn@aol.com.
