State Chess Tournament


Rachel and Chapin participated in the state chess tournament hosted at their school. The did really well. Rachel had two wins and three draws.

Chapin had one win, two losses, and two draws. He played both kindergartners and older first graders. Rachel and Chapin just started getting into the game this fall at our new school. They teach chess as part of their curriculum. Byron played in state and national chess tournaments when he was their same ages. The experience helped both of them to improve their game and confidence. We were proud of them for sticking the long day out and playing so many games.
