Chess clubs/groups

Submitted by meriousel5991 t3_xxgrd0 in WorcesterMA

I just started learning how to play chess, I thought it might be nice to meet up with others in the area who play as well. Are there any currently active groups that meet up to play in the area?

There’s a group that meets Sunday mornings at Acoustic Java behind Rotman’s. I’m not sure of the exact time

You start with a remote controlled butt plug apparently. Make sure you’ve got one of those.

If those here and following could be interested, maybe something could be started at the beer garden, or something equivalent.

There's a fun, casual group that meets at the White City Panera in Shrewsbury, Fridays 4 - 7. I'll be there tomorrow, hope you can join in :)

Yes, I’m a beginner as well, about 1000 on chess.com. There are some strong players but are also good sports. Just let them know. I’ve only made it a few times: nice atmosphere, very good coffee and lunch options.
