Dark Ages (Before 1991)
The Alondra Park Chess Club was founded in 1973, throughout the period of 1973 and 1991, it made club history when it had almost 5,000 members in a given year, we hosted over 90 tournaments and had 50 members participating in our tournaments. Since the club began it has always wanted to make it affordable to chess players, it has always had a low priced entry fee of $5.00 dollars since the club began in 1973. We are always looking for new members to help us improve the competitiveness of our tournaments and maybe someday make history by having more members than we did in the dark ages.
