Join us at Bookmans Speedway on October 18th from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for an amazing celebration of chess! In honor of National Chess Week, Bookmans is proud to sponsor the first annual All Queens Chess Day in partnership with 9 Queens.  In addition to Tucson's first chess tournament exclusively for women and girls, there will be an opportunity for kids of all ages to learn the basics of chess through fun, interactive stations. We'll even have chess themed arts and crafts activities for everyone to enjoy!

This inaugural event will be co-hosted by Vice-Mayor Regina Romero and City Council Member Nina Trasoff, and will feature City Council Member Karen Uhlich and Tucson's First Lady, Beth Walkup! Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to celebrate your love of chess or to foster a new passion for this historic game.
