Dear chess friends!
As Christmas is approaching, the trees, the shops, the streets turn into a festive lights show. People are buying and decorating Christmas trees and preparing presents for their loved ones, in every shop you can hear Christmas songs, and there is less than a month left in the year, I wanted to end this year with something special.
And this is what I have decided. I’m willing to fly for one day to any city in the USA (preferably East Coast but I will study all proposals), who has chess enthusiasts, chess clubs and people who love chess and who are ready with such a short notice to organize a small Christmas chess evening, give a good-will simul and meet chess fans of this town. This visit will be absolutely free for you (you will only need to pay for air-travel).
If you are interested in holding this event , write me an email till Friday 18, with your name, description of your club/school, number of people playing chess and approximate number of people who will to attend this Christmas meeting and the dates possibilities (Dec. 19-23 or Dec. 25-29).
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
