Since 1985, the CMSCA has provided instructors, including national masters and experts, to teach in chess clubs at over 100 schools in the greater Charlotte area. Last year, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools canceled our contract due to budget cuts, leaving thousands of students without adequate chess education. This year, we again ask for your help to defray the costs of maintaining chess instruction and tournaments for young players.
