I had a blast attending the 2022-23 CalChess Grade Level Championship hosted by Bay Area Chess. From the enthusiasm of the young competitors to getting to hear from many fans of my Daily Chess Musings YouTube Channel, I could not have ask for a better way to spend my birthday weekend. I look forward to publishing a thorough article on the CalChess Grade Level Championship in the forthcoming Winter Issue of The California Chess Journal. In the meantime, please enjoy the photo gallery from this historic event below and keep emailing your chess games to DailyChessMusings@gmail.com for possible inclusion in the next CalChess Journal.
