Thanks to Pyramid Atlantic community arts store ArtSpring
for the use of their site as a training area!


"All the Right Moves" chess activist Fernando Moreno held several training sessions on Saturday, showing parents and other interested people his manual and the supplies available for anyone willing and able to lead chess clubs in Montgomery County schools.


Meanwhile, dozens of kids and adults participated in another "open chess" event hosted by "All the Right Moves" and Downtown Silver Spring on a beautiful day. Senator Jamie Raskin and local chess prodigy James Pinkerton were on hand as well, playing chess matches against young and old challengers alike, and often teaching basics of the game as well.
