Clearwater Chinese Language School

Chinese Chess Club - Xiang Qi

Our Chinese Chess club meets on Sunday afternoons in the school cafeteria.

If you are just learning Chinese or thinking about it, learning Chinese Chess is a good way to start to learn the characters and get to know Chinese people. Tom Lacey has written a short history and how to play brochure available for a $5 donation to the school. We will also sell chess sets to those who need them.

Chinese Chess Programs are available on the Internet. But the best way to learn is from a person and the best way to have fun is to play other people.

Time: 2:00 –4:30, every Sunday Afternoon.

Contact: Tom Lacey 398-6922 or 455-1056 (cell).
