We loved our May 2026 tournament!
This time, we crossed 100 players, with so many new faces joining us from all across Oregon. It was amazing to see our chess community keep growing – familiar families, first-time players, new friendships, and a whole lot of energy in the room.
A huge shout-out to our incredible volunteers, who helped tirelessly throughout the day and made the tournament run smoothly.
