State Tournament - March 22-23 at UWO

Wow- hard to believe this is only a month away!

I have emailed parents the flyers - This is the annual STATE chess tournament, and a hugely fun tournament for kids interested in competing in chess at the state level.  

There are several divisions, and kids who compete together must be in the same School.  Kids can also compete on their own, individually, for fun.  In the past, Mill Valley has have won K-5 twice (and our name is on the trophy twice), and Lake Denoon came very close to winning K-8. Evan Seghers won 1st place in K-8 a couple years back. The Bay Lane team has also finished close to first in K-8 when Mr. Reese ran that program.  Last year, our team of Freshmen finished 5th out of 18 high schools in division 1- it is our goal to improve that this year.

This year, we will be fielding at least one team - D1 Varsity for Muskego High School - and probably a JV team as well.   We could also field a K-8 team or a K-5 if there is interest. 

This is a two-day event, held at UW-Oshkosh on campus (during their spring break).  Some people get a hotel room (there are a couple with big pools), and some may choose the dorm, which is fun in its own way, and very inexpensive!   Please see below and attached, and let me know if you are interested- or any questions you may have.  This is a REALLY FUN event!

Please let me know if you do not have the email about this event with all the details, and I will email it to you.

Thanks!

Mark / Mr. Seghers
