Chess in the Park Returns To Eastern Market Metro

Our popular series of free Saturday children’s tournaments at Eastern Market Metro Park will be back for three more editions in 2025.  The U.S. Chess Center, in tandem with Barracks Row Main Street, is happy to announce April 27, May 10, and June 7 as the scheduled dates for this year’s events.

Chess in the Park is a drop-in event open to all students in grades 2-8 that know the rules and etiquette of chess.  Online registration is now available.  No membership in any organization is required to participate; however, there is a limited amount of table space so we strongly suggest that interested students register in advance.
