My latest chess promotional trip landed me in Cumberland (MD) today. It is a quaint little city right near West Virginia.

This was the announcement from the newspaper and a full article about my visit will appear soon:

Chess champ in city today

CUMBERLAND — Susan Polgar, the only world champion in history to win the Triple Crown in chess, will be in Cumberland today.

Currently ranked No. 1 in the United States, Polgar will sign autographs and meet with the public at the Downtown Cumberland Armory Centre, 210 S. Centre St., at 1:30 p.m. Prior to that, she’ll meet privately with a group of chess enthusiasts at the Holiday Inn.

I am very impressed with the enthusiasm of the local residents about chess and I expect many good things to happen in the future. Posted by Picasa
