Looking for something fun and just a bit different to do tomorrow? Head on over to Prestonwood Elementary School and see a bunch of really bright kids check and mate each other at the RISD district wide Chess Tournament.

The kids competing are all winners in their individual school tournaments held last week. Tomorrow will find these elementary students (a dozen of them from Lake Highlands) going head to head with other chess kids in the District. They’ll be practicing sportsmanship, teamwork, strategic thinking and thinking under pressure while engaged in board battle using the Swiss System of play.
