From the Facebook page:

Lynden Youth Chess Club meet #2 is next Tuesday! (Click the your "Going" status in the tagged Event for Aug 6.)

We'll tighten up evening schedule with a 6:30 to 8:00pm (1.5 hr) with first 30 minutes focused on learning and the next 60 minutes on practice and competing. This will allow parents to plan on leaving by 8pm if they wish, while allow some to stay longer.

Attendance! If you participate in at least 4 of the 5 meets, you'll receive a special gift in recognition on August 27.
