Youth Chess Nights at the Carver
Free dinner and dessert provided by Chick-fil-A (@ Congress & 6th in ATX) where youth play and socialize through chess and parents can take a break from cooking while their children play.
Each Month, we also do a chess demonstration and giveaway Black Literature that coincides with the chess lesson.
