New outdoor chess tables available in Forest Park

There is now another spot in St. Louis for chess lovers to enjoy the game in the great outdoors.

Forest Park Forever has partnered with the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis on four outdoor, concrete tables near Steinberg Skating Rink.

The area is designed to attract more people to that section of the park throughout the year and expose more people, especially youngsters, to chess.

“We really work to try and hit as many students as possible because of the impact of the game,” Chess Club and Scholastic Center Development Manager Lauren Stewart tells St. Louis Public Radio.
