The Middleton Chess Club endeavors to provide a friendly and relaxed atmosphere for playing chess on both social and competitive levels. The club is open to anyone interested in playing or learning chess. A membership in the United States Chess Federation is not required in order to participate in the club's activities.

Membership is open to anyone interested in playing or learning chess (including students and rank beginners). The cost is $10 for an Annual membership. The purchase of a membership entitles the player to many benefits (priority use of equipment, participation in club tournaments, instruction, awards, etc.) and will enable the club to operate in the future.

Non-Members are welcome at the MCC and are invited to play casual games, as long as there are enough boards available.

The Middleton Chess Club meets on the 1^st & 3^rd Mondays of each month, from 6:00-8:30 at the Middleton Public Library (7425 Hubbard Ave). Please check the daily schedule, posted in the library, for the room location (meeting rooms are located in the basement). Players may come and go as their schedules permit.
