​CHESSanity is proud to have hosted TEN Chess-in-the-Park functions in Long Island since the fall of 2014,  the first two (Sept. 16, 2014; Sept. 27, 2015) in partnership with LI Chess Mates in Syosset-Woodbury Community Park, and the following ones in Allenwood Park of Great Neck, and the most recent one with HMTC. Each of these events attracted upwards of 80-150 chess players and parents. The annual event contains fun for all, from competitive blitz and bughouse competitions to clinics/simultaneous exhibitions by top junior players, including FIDE Master Wesley Wang, Woman International Master Evelyn Zhu, FIDE Master Vincent Tsay and International Master Liran Zhou.
