CHES”  is the acronym for “Caribtempo Hobby-Enthusiasts Society”  --- dedicated to the preservation of snail mail correspondence for the promotion of universal friendship while, at the same time, adapting to new approaches in telecommunications and IT technologies; utilizing the tools of internet access: such as email and message boards connections for fostering faster and more convenient means of contact.

The principal objective of “CHES-International” is to encourage greater and more meaningful involvement in the arts, through regularly sponsored contests, competitions, quizzes and other forms of rewarded motivation. Hence, realizing the real and true significance of the society’s motto; namely: “Promoting Literature, Art, Culture & Entertainment”…. Or, as normally said, in short: “CHES for PLACE

CHES”  is divided into three units, namely:

1 – MAC: Music Appreciation Circle

2 – IFC: International Friendship Club

3 – GAF: Global Arts Fraternity

There’s a fact sheet defining the aims and activities threshold of each unit. These are available, upon request, by email.

Each unit operates as a distinct entity.
