The USO is to the left as you reach the first intersection inside the park. You will drive past the Guardhouse and park just below the USO in the lot across from the McCurdy Pavilion.

Chess Fest
Chess Fest
Salish Coast Elementary's inaugural "Chess Fest" on Saturday, May 11th, was a triumphant showcase of youthful enthusiasm for the age-old game of chess. Over 28 bright-eyed elementary school students from grades 3-5, alongside their supportive families, gathered at the school grounds for a day of strategic maneuvers and friendly competition. Guided by their dedicated mentors from Skillmation, who nurtured their chess skills at school every Monday, the young contenders embarked on a journey of three challenging games: one with a familiar face, another with a stranger, and a final match purely for the joy of playing. Through this event, the aim was clear: to demonstrate to the Port Townsend community the depth of passion and joy these children find in the game of chess, fostering a spirit of camaraderie and intellectual growth among the participants. To top off the afternoon, all participants were delighted to come away with a small prize, a token of recognition for their dedication and sportsmanship.

End of the Year Message
It's almost the end of our school year! Have a fun and safe summer! Remember to have kids wear sunscreen and helmets and check out these Summer Safety Tips from Seattle Children's Hospital.
Summer is a great time for a Well Child checkup with your student's doctor. Please make sure your student is up-to-date on their vaccinations and do any catch-up this summer!
Also, If your student has medication stored in the office, please come pick it up on the last day of class. Medications from this year cannot be stored over the summer.
Have a lovely summer and see you next year!
-Nurse Merilee
