Chess Team Raids the NY State Chess Championships

The Dalton Tiger Chess Team raided the New York State Chess Championships in Saratoga Springs on March 1 and 2, bringing home three team trophies and a nice collection of individual honors as well.
Our students performed at a very high level, earning first place in Elementary, second in Primary and third in K-1.  The Dalton chess parents were wonderfully supportive throughout, and our outside coaching staff worked tirelessly, going over game plans and preparing our children for each round.  All in all, it was a great effort from everyone, and Mother Nature was kind enough to cancel the predicted fierce winter storm that had been predicted for our drive back to NYC from Saratoga Springs.
