Scholastic Chess Club Plan
This is how one organizer went about forming a new scholastic chess club that meets in Order a USCF Scholastic chess club affiliate information packet.
http://www.okschess.org/starting/plan.htm

Extractions: Scholastic Chess Club Plan Chess Club Plans Do Vary This is how one organizer went about forming a new scholastic chess club that meets in an upper elementary school (grades 5 and 6). This plan was fine tuned following the first and second years. Granted, there's a lot of detail here and you may choose to use the contents links to simply focus on where you are in the process or refer back to specific items. With this tool, you'll be able to go through the process much more smoothly and quickly than I did, and be glad you did. If you're a school faculty person wanting to start a club, some of the early steps may already be virtually complete. It's best to begin the process of forming a new chess club about a month before school begins. However, it can be accomplished any time during the first half of the school year. Meeting in a school carries along certain requirements that may not apply for another location. Your situation may be different in this and other respects, requiring some modification to the plan. For example, a K-4 program may have less emphasis on tournament preparation under similar conditions. Conversely, high school clubs may require less supervisory structure with members as club officers conducting the meetings for themselves. The important thing is to have a well thought out plan for the formation of the new club, so that your effort goes smoothly and is more likely to succeed. If you have a different plan for a different situation to submit for others to access on this web site, please contact the

History Of San Francisco Chess
History of the Mechanics Institute chess Club.
http://www.chessclub.org/hist.html

Extractions: A Short History Of Chess In San Francisco Probably the oldest chess club in continuous existence in the nation, the Mechanics' Institute was organized on December 11, 1854. In June of 1855, it was established in a $25.-a-month room in the Express Building at the corner of Montgomery and California streets. Thanks to gifts and bequests to its endowment fund, various activities such as the old Industrial Fairs, and enhancement from investments, the institute now owns its own building at 57 Post Street and has a substantial amount of invested capital. In 1929 Alexander Alekhine suffered an unheard-of number of reverses in a simultaneous exhibition; at the conclusion of his tour, a European journalist asked him where he found the strongest opposition. "In San Francisco, in a place called the Mechanics' Institute," replied Alekhine. Dr. W. R. Lovegrove In his first days as a member of the Mechanics' Institute, Vladimir met one of the pre-eminent players there, Dr. W. R. Lovegrove, arguably one of the strongest non-tournament chess players in the world at the time. Vladimir was fortunate to have been able to play the Doctor on a regular basis. Tournaments in those days were very rare and these games gave Vladimir a chance to polish his game, especially his endgame. Dr. Walter Romain Lovegrove, master emeritus of the U. S. Chess Federation, died in San Francisco on July 18, 1956, at 86 years of age. The following excerpt from the California Chess Reporter (by Dr. H. J. Ralston) gives a clear idea of how strong he was.
