Calling all Chess Players
Dr. B shares his expertise with children every Thursday from 4 - 5:30 p.m. During Thursday chess, local kids can play each other and take on Dr. B’s challenges to improve skills.
Dr. B started playing chess when he was 6 years old with his grandfather and has been helping Sedona kids play for four years at the Library. Dr. B is looking for players who want to learn how to play better and participate in scholastic chess. He would love to host a local chess team for tournaments. Most of all, he is looking for a kid who can beat him! Are you the next Bobby Fisher?
