Come and have fun with us. Come learn all the rules and the meaning of such chess terms as fork, skewer, en passant, and the Halloween gambit. Or, just come and play your friends and make new ones that share your interest in this fascinating game. Not only is chess fun but playing it has been shown to improve academic performance.

Students can help influence others and make an impact beyond their local community.” The Husky Science Challenge is open to all students.
