Dear Players,

Please see our special invitation for the two great events this weekend:

Simul with IM Kesav Viswanadha benefitting the Monta Vista High School Chess Team Saturday 2/4 @ 5:45pm

BayAreaChess is proud to be hosting a very special event tomorrow, Saturday at 5:45pm from our San Jose office.
Address is: 2050 Concourse Drive Unit #42, San Jose, CA 95131 (Click here for map).

The Monta Vista High Chess Team is trying to raise money to help fund their trip to the Supernationals in Nashville.
Two of its team members will hold fundraising simuls at our office, and all proceeds go directly to the Monta Vista High Chess team. 

This Saturday February 4th, IM Kesav Viswanadha will play a 30 board max simul at our office. At 17 years old and with a rating of 2456, he is currently ranked #3 in the country for his age group.
Come out this Saturday to match wits with this young phenom while supporting a very good cause; a bay area scholastic chess team representing us at the national championships.
Tickets for a seat to play are only $20, and please remember, this is for a great cause!!
Event has a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/events/375043919538836/
