The Chess Forum Goes Back-to-School
by Mitchell Levine

The Chess Forum on Thompson Street has become a New York City chess institution. Since 1995, the combined club, café , store, and now school, has always focused on young players and education. Now that back-to-school time is here, the store also sponsors monthly tournaments for students in the New York and New Jersey schools, in conjunction with NYChessKids. Schedules for the competitions can be found at www.nychesskids.com. Onsite, International Master Sheldon Rabovitch instructs youth in the game at reasonable rates. As a special promotion, The Chess Forum will provide a 20% discount on all merchandise until Thanksgiving for current students with valid student ID. For more information, contact the club toll-free at 1-800-393-4330, or log on-line at www.chessforum.com.
