Comments
Any way to find out if Maine chess players are going to tournaments and are willing to share hotel rooms and/or transportation?
Thanks,
Troy

Hi,
As a MECA member, I proposed, and would still like to see, a separate link on this website with "news from the MECA board". I may have said "News from the President", but might as well include all eight folks. A monthly type newsletter of what is going on at the board level should be appropriate enough to publish.
Please consider.
Thanks,
Phil
Phil, A new link providing a forum for the MECA Board of Diectors and the MECA Policy Board to communicate with the ChessMaine.net community is coming soon.

Great site?
How often do the puzzles, etc change?
I'm a former Springvale resident (48-70) and am glad to hear of the Chess meetings at the Springvale Library.
I live in Alaska now, but will be in Maine in April.
I'll be glad to support MECA, and will be sending in my $10.
Keep pushing wood!
