North West Chess

If you are a resident of Washington State, your Northwest Chess subscription includes a state chess membership. For WCF (Washington) membership options, please continue to use this website. All WCF memberships are considered "Premium," and include benefits such as free registration to certain seminars. If you are a resident of Oregon, your Northwest Chess subscription to paper copies includes a "Premium" OCF state membership. You can also choose a "Basic" OCF membership with online-only access to NWC magazine. For now, you should contact OCF directly if you want this option. Also see the OCF website. For Idaho (ICA) membership options, please visit the ICA website. These options include a "Premium" membership with a NWC subscription. For new subscriptions and renewals, NWC no longer guarantees that there will continue to be 12 printed magazines each year. There could be fewer editions, and/or publication could be in an online format. At present, we expect that printed magazines will continue to be available for all 2023-dated editions.

We will completely update the website once this name is officially registered with the State of Washington and the IRS. This does not affect the name of the magazine - it's still Northwest Chess!
