Hanson Extravaganza

 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.​
