Easton Chess Club

Easton Panera, 3942 Townsfair Way, Columbus Ohio

Fridays 6-10 PM

The Easton Chess Club is a “re-launch” of the Fellowship of the King group that met at the Easton Panera for several years. We offer casual play, periodic rated events (watch www.neilley.com/chess for details), and an opportunity to meet other players in the Columbus area for training games as well as learning from one another, all in a casual atmosphere. Adults and kids welcome.

We meet at the Easton Panera (3942 Townsfair Way) across from the South Parking garage (most convenient) and next to World of Beer. The Easton Panera location is conveniently located close to dining and shopping, so spouses/significant others can join you for dinner, then enjoy the Easton amenities while you play chess. Older kids are welcome to play chess while Mom or Dad run to Barnes & Noble, Brio, or World of Beer!

Panera has always been a great host to our group, so we ask that players and their families reciprocate by making a purchase, whether that be dinner, or just a cup of coffee.

If you have any questions, have suggestions, or would like to help organize events for the group, contact Evan Shelton at 614-425-6514 or shelton.evan2601@gmail.com. Just remember, if you make a suggestion you might get asked to help implement it!
