Several of our club members, youth and adults alike, are always up for attending and sometimes need a ride to chess club. With this in mind, our carpool committee is excited to announce the McMinnville Chess Club Rides group chat, a new way to help our members get to and from chess club.
Carpooling is a great way to better get to know other members while headed to club, and it greatly lowers one of the barriers some of our members have for getting to our club meetings. It’s also a good way — in addition to traveling to club by foot or on bike — a good way to get an extra raffle ticket at our events!
To be added to the group chat by SMS without needing to install yet another app, speak with an organizer at one of our events, or send a message to 501-468-2437 (501-GOT-CHESS). To fine-tune your notification settings, however, download GroupMe for iOS or GroupMe for Android, and you can even use it on the web.
Please note that our carpool committee is made up of volunteers, and rides to and from chess club cannot be guaranteed.
