Weekly Chess Meet at Plaza Damas, Sri Hartamas - Every Wednesday from 6:30pm to 9:30pm

From Najib Wahab:-

Interested to meet up and play chess?

I am organizing a weekly chess session every Wednesday evening from 6:30pm to 9:30pm at Knowledge Mine Tuition Center located in Plaza Damas, Sri Hartamas with the first weekly session to start on 19th February 2014. Knowledge Mine Tuition Center is located at Blok L, Unit 1.9/2.9 Plaza Damas, Jalan Sri Hartamas – immediately on top of Starbucks

This is a free and open session (no fees shall be imposed) for everyone to participate. The center intents to promote as part of its learning enrichment program and the weekly session is to promote and provide a place for chess players to meet up, chat, play a game of chess with fellow chess players, or enjoy reading a collection of chess books available in its mini library. As this is a voluntary site provided by the management of Knowledge Mine, visitors are encouraged to bring their own sets and clocks although a limited number of sets and clocks will be made available.

Currently, there is a beginners chess class being organized every Saturday from 5:00pm to 7:00pm with more classes to be added soon. Other events planned at the same location will include a monthly chess event, team event, blitz event, weekly team/individual league and many more activities for players from all playing levels and age groups. If you are into Sabutteo - the table football game, the Knowledge Mine is also the place to be

For parents and non playing partners, there are plenty of eateries and entertainment within the complex including Starbucks (directly below the Tuition Center), TGIF, a Supermarket, convenient stores (7-11), Karaoke and many more. From my personal experience, the Mee Rebus and Mee Bandong served at the Warong nearby is definitely something not to miss.

For those driving to the center, there are ample parking spots within the complex basement with rates as cheap as RM1 per hour - as a reminder, do avoid the open car park above as it can be costly.
