Did you know that the Soviet Union used to refer to chess as “The People’s Game”? Chess clubs were established in factories, farms, and schools, making it an accessible, state-backed hobby, which became ingrained in the culture. Enter for the chance to win a 1.5 hour chess workshop with CBK’s own, Alex Morano. You may know Alex Morano from his DSA leadership, but did you know he is also one of the co-founders of the Prospect Park Chess Club?! This club has won two consecutive Brooklyn chess olympiads! Alex is offering a 1.5 hour 1:1 workshop to someone who is looking to learn the basics, sharpen their chess-playing strategy, and/or get some practice in against a formidable player.
