Updated Schedule and Shattuck Chess

The 2014-15 chess tournament schedule has been updated online to reflect a swap of the 1/31 date (now at Westfield) and the 2/14 date (now at Green Bay).  New printed schedules will be made available to students who received the original schedule.

The Shattuck Chess Club will begin this Tuesday, October 7th, after school.  The club will be held in the library and will run until 4:30.  Students will bring home a newsletter as well as information about joining the chess and participating in an upcoming tournament in Waupaca.

Chess Club Getting Underway for 2014/15

The new school year is beginning, and Neenah High School students will have an early opportunity to reinvigorate those chess muscles that may have atrophied during the summer break. As in the past couple of years, chess will begin on the first day of school; Tuesday, September 2nd. Practices will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:20-4:30 and running until Nationals in April. We will meet as usual in the Apollo commons which is in the Armstrong building, just inside door 6.

Middle school chess clubs will begin at Shattuck and Horace Mann around the end of September or early October. Details will be posted in a couple of weeks.

New this year, you may follow us on twitter for important travel and tournament information, as well as live tournament results.
