Let's unlock new possibilities.
Imagination = possibilities beyond your wildest imagination!
A Note from the CEO
Many are drawn to the game of chess due to its profound embodiment of possibilities.
With each move, a multitude of potential paths unfold, offering players the opportunity to explore, engage, and learn.
While pattern recognition is one skill, I believe that in order to excel in chess, one must have a profound reliance on imagination.
In other words, one must trust in their imagination and let it run free.
Chess requires players to constantly (and sometimes quickly!) envision and navigate the many scenarios that arise from each decision and move.
Imagination = possibilities beyond your wildest imagination!
That is why at Queenside our motto is: Unlocking new possibilities in every
piece,
move,
and decision.

Quote of the Week
“Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.” - Gloria Steinem, American journalist, social-political activist, and co-founded of MS Magazine
