Feb. 1, 2023 UPDATE: Hector had to excuse himself due to lack of time, and Eric Luster will continue as director for now.
Jan. 1, 2023: Hector Guifarro will succeed Eric Luster as the Director of Warren Junior Scholars and the ICA's Rising Stars programs. Mr. Guifarro is the co-founder of the "Chess for Fighters" program and the president of the College of Lake County chess club.
He hopes his biggest asset for Illinois chess, and specifically the WJS/RS programs will be his above average love of the game and desire to be an advocate for scholastic chess students, particularly in the state of Illinois.
