Community Education
Grandmasters of Chess
New and returning students are invited. Learn, practice, and play chess during each class. This method keeps students on track with new chess lessons and puzzles each week, as well as guided games and in-class tournaments.
When: October 23 Time: 4:05pm - 5:05pm. Cost: $71 ($44). Where: Adams Library
Flag Football Program
This after school flag football program provides an organized, entertaining and educational sports experience. We believe youth sports should be about more than skills and scores. While teaching kids to play the sport is important, we also develop character by teaching sportsmanship values and celebrating players who demonstrate these values. The mission is to help kids succeed in life through sports.
