St. Louis will host the U.S. Chess Championship this year! From May 7-17, 2009 the leading chess from around the country will compete for over $200,000 in prizes at the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of St. Louis.
Chess has proven to develop memory, improve schoolwork/grades, develop logical thinking, inspire self-motivation and develop social skills. It is awesome that our community gets to share in such a momentous and historic event!
