I am looking for good, free software that will allow me to keep records on a small club.  I've tried ELO program downloadable from this site but it's buggy when I try to load the group file and shuts the program down entirely.

I work at a juvenile detention center and a lot of the kids respond to chess.  I'm trying to get it organized and give them something to look forward to.

I have no hint about the software, just wanted to say thanks for the work that you do, it has to be hard and rewarding all at once.

hey I'm looking for the same thing.  I have a great chance to start a nice chess club.

It's not free ($99), but it sounds like it's perfect for your application. Check out Chess Club Manager by Think Like a King.
