Dartmouth Rotary Club's first scholastic Chess Tournament

Chess players from the region were invited to the Dartmouth Rotary Club’s first scholastic chess tournament held on Saturday September 11th, at the Dartmouth Middle School.

 

The players participated in four rounds of chess, the first play started at 10:00. The SouthEast New England Chess Association (SENECA), provided the young players with the chessboards and pieces. Some players brought their own chess clocks.

“This was a fun program, our first, the players had fun and they learned a little bit about Rotary and service to the community” said Terri Hamm, chairperson and Rotary member.

 

This program was an educational outreach by the Dartmouth Rotary which Terri helped organize. Dartmouth Rotary gives scholarships to high school students and to Vocational students.
