The Sun Lakes Chess Club meets every Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Arts & Crafts Room (A-8) in Cottonwood Country Club. There is no cost and no membership or residency requirement. All ages and playing strengths are welcome. Chess sets are provided, as well as chess clocks if you require them.
Starting in November of 2025 and continuing through January of 2026, we will provide a free group beginner chess lesson (one hour each) taught from 10 to 11 a.m. on the first Saturday of each month. These lessons will be led by one or more of our more experienced players and will be taught with the beginner to intermediate player in mind.
If you would like to know more about the club, the free chess lessons, or how to get started, feel free to reach out to Rick Whitney at 425-232-6787. You can also check out our Sun Lakes Chess Club Facebook group page at www.facebook.com/groups/9384375458272491.
We hope to see you soon!
