Club adds chess, hopes to bring new members

Makes sense. In NYC there are many places you can find chess, go, backgammon, bridge, scrabble, gin, checkers etc under one roof. Of course if you have a business you have to appeal to a wide audience to pay your overhead.

Dean Ippolito tried adding bridge games to his normal offering of chess tournaments and instruction. Didn’t work.
