Free Greensboro chess club meets Aug. 2 at Hemphill Branch Library

Greensboro’s city calendar lists a free Knights of Vandalia Chess Club session for Sunday, Aug. 2, 2026, giving families and chess players a same-day activity at the Hemphill Branch Library.

The program is scheduled from 2 to 4 p.m. at 2301 W. Vandalia Road. The city describes it as an opportunity to learn and practice chess, develop critical-thinking skills and compete with other players. The listed program is for ages 8 and up and has no admission charge.

The calendar says the program is library-sponsored but led by volunteers. Participants are still welcome to stay and use the library’s chess equipment if volunteers are unavailable, according to the listing.

For questions or last-minute confirmation, the city lists the Hemphill Branch phone number as 336-373-2925. Readers should check the official event page before leaving in case the schedule changes.
