My Project

Our chess club is hoping for quality chess sets. We had ordered some sets earlier in the year but found out they were on back order so they did not arrive. The sets we are currently playing with have pieces that are very small and are consistently falling off of the board. If we have larger pieces and portable roll-up mats we will be able to play in and host tournaments.

Our club is just getting started, but we already have sixteen students who are interested and excited about playing chess, and we are in need of more boards to accommodate all of the players.
