FEBRUARY 27 - MARCH 6, 2009

HELP US REPRESENT SANTA BARBARA AT NATIONALS!

Inspired by this weekend's big tournament victory, we are revisiting the possibility of attending the National Championships in Nashville, TN April 3-5.

We would be the only team representing the city of Santa Barbara, and though we would expect to do quite well, we've come up short in funds needed to attend the competition.

So, we're having a Chess Funding Drive beginning Friday, Feb 27, at 8:15am and ending next Friday at 3:00pm (March 6).

  • Goal: $7000 (providing for a full team)
  • Why: We'd be the only team representing Santa Barbara at nationals.
  • How: Tax-deductible donations can be made out to "SJDA Chess," and sent or delivered to the school. 100% of your donation will be used to help our team represent Santa Barbara by attending Nationals.

    Checks can be sent to:

    St. John of Damascus Academy
    Attn: Chess Drive
    401 N. Fairview Avenue - Rm 11
    Goleta, CA 93117

  • A donations count update will be posted on our website each day.
  • Help us represent Santa Barbara at nationals! We don't have much time!

If you'd like to pay by credit card, you can do so using Google Checkout, below.



We thank you in advance for your support of our Chess Team and of Santa Barbara!
