Chess Diva #6 picture help!

We are currently working on episode 6. It will feature top chess players. This episode will come out at the end of June.
We need your help with this episode. There's a lot of chess in the community, such as a big chess board at a busy town square, a chess bumper sticker on somebody's car, chess tables at a coffee house, and etc.
Where do you see chess in your community? Take a picture of it and we'll share it on this episode!
Please send pictures to us no later than June 27th.
We also need your first/last name and where the picture was taken.
We prefer jpeg picture format. Our e-mail address is chessdiva.show@gmail.com
Thanks!

CalChess State Scholastic Championship! and episode 6

The 33rd CalChess State Scholastic Championship was played last weekend, in
San Jose, California. By the way, San Jose's population will go over 1 million very soon!

In the highschool division, a couple of people tied for first, including Boglarka Erdos.
She's a strong chess player from Hungary! I'd like to congratulate her. Barbara and I actually played
her last year at the 2007 all female chess tournament in Palo Alto, California.

Chess Diva #6 will be recorded next month! We'll be having a special woman guest in the studio!
More on this later!
