Located in downtown Worthington, this club has a very relaxed flavor to it. A place where anyone is welcome to come, sip on a drink, relax, and not feel intimidated. Like the old English Pub, except with hot chocolate/coffee instead of beer, and chess instead of darts. Players of all strengths participate. The more experienced players tend to take a mentoring/teaching role to the less experienced players. It is a place where taking a move back is not frowned upon, thus the name of the club being 'The Mulligan Chess Club' (mulligan being a golf term for hitting the ball again, without a penalty, if you did not like your shot). The Mean Bean is not charging us for the use of their store, but in return we usually buy something when we are there.
The Mulligan Chess Club is now being maintained at http://www.meetup.com/mulligan/ . Please go there to sign up for this free service and the Mulligan Chess Club.
