Do you like chess? Hugely?
Monday, October 16, 2023 by Elizabeth Pagano
Austin’s Chess in the Park is back for another round on Oct. 29 in Wooldridge Square Park. The scholastic chess tournament is for students grades K-12, with another division that is open to adults. Medals will be awarded to the top three players in each of the divisions. Registration, which can be completed here, is limited to the first 50 players. There is no elimination, and players can participate in all tournament rounds. Because the tournament is not rated, it’s open to all. In case of bad weather, the tournament will be held at the Dobie Mall food court – Guadalupe and 21st on the second level.
