Meeting!!!!!!

This past meeting on Thursday was a huge success. Finally, things are looking up for the club. Some may know there was a point where the president of the chess club was going to cancel the club completely. The MonkeyMaster feels appreciated and would just like to thank the following people who helped him out all year:

1. Tina Tran
2. Mike Lippa
3. Mike Peters
4. Jonathan Jusino
5. Parish Owens
6. John Zang

Once again thanks a lot and I am sure now we will never loose. We are a small club but that just leaves more room for smart and helpful ideas. Thank You :)

NYC Marathon

10 students will be needed to help out with the NYC marathon. They will be paying the chess club $500 for helping out with handing out water, cleaning up, etc. You will not be required to run. Again, we need 10 students, and they wont pay us unless we have all 10 students, so this is very important to help improve upon the club. If you would like to participate, please contact either Jonathan Warshaw or Mr. McGillicuddy in room 202.
