Club Circular to all members
Hi Bangor Chess Club Members,
Thank you so much for paying your club fees by our 11th Sept deadline.
We’ve removed former members from the WhatsApp ‘broadcast message’, from ‘our club email and from the club website, so we keep this new season current with only paid-up members.
Over this past week, our Child Protection Officer, Jennifer Worbey, has been amazing at helping shape our club protocols to keep all our kids safe and happy at the club! We’re introducing a new membership form which we will ask all members to sign this week (parents to sign on behalf of children) which outlines that all members accept the club policies and membership gets immediately revoked for anyone who breaks our rules.
Thankfully in the 59 and a half years history of the club I don’t think we’ve ever had to revoke any club memberships but it’s just good to have all policies in place, especially to keep everyone aware of all the child protection guidelines.
Copies of the form will be at the chess club this Thursday night. Please sign when you arrive and leave up to the arbiter desk.
Thank you so much everyone!
Super excited to hold our first big chess tournament in the main hall this Thursday at Groomsport! The place will be buzzing!
See you all there!
