Chess sets and equipment – message from Francis Best, Secretary

Despite our requests, the hospital remains adamant that we cannot store our equipment on site at the Redwoods Centre.  I have been holding off buying the new equipment agreed at the AGM until this matter was resolved but it looks like we will have to transport sets, boards and clocks back and forth each week, for the foreseeable future.

At the moment, the plan is for everyone to take at least one of each (board, clock and set) for safe custody home and back.  I also have a suitcase containing several of each type of equipment but this is unwieldy and I would rather not continue with this for too long.

Longer term, I will look into suitable carrying bags to buy, alongside the new equipment, so that it can all be transported back and forth without too much burden on any one individual.

I’ll keep you posted.

Francis
