4-H Chess

This is another "Table of Contents" page, my way to make Blogger work for my very scattered mind.

I have been a 4-H chess leader since Shelagh (now a freshman in college) was in 3rd grade. I started as a chess leader because I was needed, not because I was all that good at chess. Still, my background as a casino dealer gave me insight into how and why people play games and how to run fair games.

A post in February 2005 was intended as my "how-to" for chess leaders.

In March I posted a small piece about the progress that my K-3 group had made over the winter.

"Why I'm a 4-H Volunteer" was written for our vounteer appreciation week.
