Join us each Tuesday evening, 5:00-8:30 PM, in a battle on the boards...chess boards that
is. We meet at the Patrick Beaver Library in Hickory, NC for a contest of strategy, tactics,
and will. Please note that the regular Tuesday meetings are competition events not
teaching events. As such they are not designed for young children or minors in need of
adult supervision or transportation. Special family oriented events will be planned and
announnced periodically to serve parents and children who are interested in learning
chess. Look for announcements of upcoming events on this website.
Checkmate the king! That's the point. Pawns are on the move. Knights are leaping while bishops glide from corner to corner. Rooks stand guard while the queen runs throughout the board. And the King waits, at least for a while. Later in the game the King becomes more active, but at the beginning the King must hide in fear of the worst news of all. Checkmate! Game over.
That's the game of chess. It has been said that chess takes about an hour to learn, but requires a lifetime to master. Hickory Chess Club is made up of those who chose to give some time to the mastery of chess.
You are invited to join us if you are interested in learning and developing your chess game. Members of the club meet together for spirited competition and to assist beginners and novice players in developing their game. Whether you are a beginner, an occasional player, or an experienced player, there is action to be found at the Hickory Chess Club.
