Hello MESA family,
If you're a chess enthusiast or enjoy challenging yourself, you're in luck! Our Chess Challenge is coming up on Wednesday, November 6th. From 8:00am-5:00pm, the MESA center will be open to students who want to drop in and make a move on our community board, or play against an opponent. Bring your friends and create your own bracket! Enjoy competing for the glory and bragging rights, and have fun! ♟

This competition is held twice a year – once in the fall, then again in late winter/early spring. The top five scorers will receive a gift card. At the end of the year, prizes and scholarships are awarded to the top teams and individuals in the nation. About twelve Washington schools participate, along with more than 140 schools around the country. Participation in this would look good on applications or resumes.
