Serrano Elementary 11-13-21
From a proud parent of a child who had lots of fun at the Serrano Elementary Scholastic Chess Tournament: "Thank you for everything you and the members of RYCA have done for the kids who love to play chess. My son talked nonstop about yesterdays event all afternoon and evening since we returned home. I asked him what was the most memorable/best moments. He said everything (games he won, games he lost, even the pizzas). He had the best time."
If you are interested in hosting a tournament at your high school, please let an RYCA officer know and we will be glad to help you and your students hold it.
