WESTMORLAND
|
|
Of
all of the Real Counties, Westmorland seems to be at once the most beautiful
and the most threatened. The ‘keg county’
of Cumbria is the only one of these units still in formal existence, and
occupies the whole of Westmorland as well as Cumberland, the Furness district
of Lancashire and even a bit of Yorkshire.
There’s one bright spot though – ask for a local paper and you’ll get
one – the Westmorland Gazette, long may it reign. |

Girls’ Chess in Westmorland ECGCF
would be very glad to hear from anyone who feels capable of organising a
girls’ chess team for this County.
You will need a team of six U14 girls, (this can include girls from
much younger age groups) who need NOT be strong players. The prospect of selection for their County
often acts as a stimulant and incentive to concentrate on improving their
strength. If
you are a person who could fulfil this very valuable task, please get into
touch with ECGCF by telephoning 0202 8660 8564 or 0202 8405 9308, or by email
to sgclecgcf@aol.com. We
will be able to provide you with a list of schools within your County where
chess is already an established activity.
From there on - it’s up to you! |
