Greetings, fellow chess players of
On May 14 at 8:00 p.m., the New Britain Chess Club appeared on
the "Inside-Out" segment of Connecticut Public Television's "All
Things Connecticut", a new series hosted by Diane Smith. The NBCC's appearance on local television makes this by far the
greatest moment in our club's sixty-plus year history. I truly want to take
this opportunity to extend my appreciation to those individuals who volunteered
to be interviewed - Treasurer Andris Strazdins, David Aldi and USCF
National Master Ted McHugh. During our five minute segment, the producer, Eric
Clemons, captured the heart and soul of our club with many excellent photos. My
personal favorite was the excitement captured on the faces of Expert Derek
Meredith and Danny Pascetta, our club's youngest
member, during their Blitz game.
An opportunity for the NBCC to receive this outstanding
publicity could never have happened if it was not for the efforts of
I am forwarding you a message that was sent to Rob from Jerry
Franklin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Connecticut Public
Broadcasting Network. If you have seen the NBCC's
segment on CPTV, Mr. Franklin explains how you can do so.
To all members, thank you for your continued support. Excellent
job, guys! You make us
Best regards,
Bob Kozlowski
