End of the Year for Chess Club

Dear Chess Club Members and Parents,

Thank you for a wonderful end of the year party.  The members had a great time and they enjoyed the delicious treats donated by the parents which made our party so special.

I had the pleasure working with each of our members and loved watching them grow while they learned to play chess.  I hope each of you will continue to play and enjoy this sport as much as I do.

Thank you also for the wonderful gifts, as in the past, I will treasure them.  I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Have a wonderful summer and thank you again.

Mrs. Dumke

Missing Coat

Today after Chess Club practice one of our players went home with the wrong coat.  It is a boy large with Dylan’s name inside the coat.  The coat is blue.  Please return it tomorrow.  There is an unclaimed coat hanging on the coat rack outside the cafeteria where we hang up our coats for Chess Club.

 

Thank you

Great Job Chess Club Members

Yesterday, our Chess Club Members came together and played beautiful against Oakman.  We won 6 to 0.  I am so proud of everyone.  Thank you to all the parents who drove to Oakman and cheered us on.  Thank you also to the parents who drove players to the match so they could participate.

We will have a make up match against Becker next Tuesday, February 26th here at Snow.  We will begin at 4:00 and end at 5:00.  Please be sure to have your child wear a blue or Snow shirt.

Tomorrow we will have practice as usual.

 

Thank you again

Make up for our Chess Match against Becker Elementary

Good Morning Chess Club Members,

Due to our Snow Day last Tuesday, we will be making up our match against Becker on Tuesday, February 26th at Snow Elementary.  The match will begin at 4:00pm and end at 5:00pm.  It will be held in the cafeteria as usual.

If you have not already, please get your permission slip to me by Tuesday morning February 19th for our match at Oakman Elementary.

Have a great Valentine’s Day and Mid Winter Break.

Upcoming Tournaments

February 8, 2019

 

Dear Chess Club Parents and Members,

 

With all of the Snow Days and Breaks it has been hard to get all of our Chess Club information out to you in a timely matter. On Tuesday, February 12th we will be having our second tournament at Snow Elementary against Becker Elementary. We will begin at 4:00 and end around 5:00. Please make sure your child is wearing either a Snow Elementary shirt or a blue shirt if possible.

Secondly, attached is a field trip form for our third and final tournament. We will be traveling to Oakman Elementary on Tuesday, February 19th. Parents must provide transportation to this match. We will meet in the cafeteria at 3:40 and once riders and drivers are present we will leave for Oakman. Please have your child wear a Snow Elementary or blue shirt that day as well. The signed field trip form MUST be returned to me no later than Tuesday, February 12th.  This is so I can get an idea of how many of our players will be attending and who has transportation. If you are not driving your child, I need to know who will be taking them. If you are driving another child who is not a family member, you must have a background check from the school office. These background checks are good for three years.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

 

Thank you again for allowing me to work with a great group of students.

Good Evening Chess Club Members and Parents,

I just wanted to let you all know, Tuesday, January 22nd is early dismissal so I am cancelling Chess Club.  I would like to make it up on Wednesday, January 23rd after school at 3:45 until 4:30 in the Cafeteria.   I understand that some members have other commitments and will not be able to join us.  So I hope to see as many as possible on Wednesday.

Also I wanted let everyone know we will still have practice on the Thursdays on the weeks we have our tournaments.

Thank you again for a great group of players.  Have a safe weekend.

On Tuesday, February 19th we will travel of Oakman Elementary.   Snow verses Oakman at Oakman Elementary.

All parents who will be transporting a player who is not their own child or children must have the field trip clearance to transport another player other than their own.  We will leave Snow Elementary right after school and should arrive at Oakman close to 4:00pm.  After the match, if you are transporting only your child or children you can leave for your home.  If you are transporting another player, then we will either go back to Snow Elementary for pickup or make arrangements with the child’s parent to take them directly to their home.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

 

Thank you for a great group of Chess Players,
