    CHESS CHAMP ARONIAN TO LEAD CHESS CAMP IN LA

    11:03 04.07.2014

    On Monday, July 7, World Cup and 3 time Chess Olympiad Champion Levon
    Aronian will be holding a public press conference to meet and greet
    media and members of the community. Grand Master Aronian is making
    his first visit to Los Angeles for a 4-day chess camp organized by
    Metro Chess and the American Chess Academy to be held at the Glendale
    Hilton from July 9 to 13, Asbarez reports.

    As part of the visit, Aronian will be teaching and coaching camp
    attendees as well as sharing his own experiences as the winner and
    title holder of many chess championships and tournaments including
    leading the Armenian national team to three World Chess Olympic
    titles. Only 31, Aronian is the third highest ranked chess player in
    the history of the game behind Gary Kasparov.

    Ardy Kassakhian, Glendale's elected City Clerk, expressed his
    enthusiasm about Aronian's upcoming visit, "Levon Aronian has become
    an icon for chess enthusiasts worldwide. But being from Armenia, and
    elevating the game to new heights has secured him a particular place
    in the pantheon of chess greats alongside such legends as Petrosian
    and Kasparov. Glendale has one of the largest populations of Armenians
    in the United States and it is a great honor to welcome a chess giant
    to our city!"

    Aronian will answer questions and meet with the public at a special
    reception held on Monday, July 7 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the City of
    Glendale Adult Recreation Center Auditorium located at 201 East
    Colorado, Glendale, CA 91205 next to the Central Library.
