and to reward the students, parents and staff for a productive
season, Chess Corps treated its members to a delightful performance
by a talented violinist from the New England Conservatory.
The year-end party featured an afternoon of new and challenging
chess activities with a special emphasis on teamwork and cooperation,
including "Musical Chess" and "Relay Chess",
created by Chess Corps Chairman, Eric Cushing.
