The Southwest Washington Scholastic Chess Championships are set to be held on Saturday, Feb. 4, 2023 at Centralia College. Grays Harbor middle and high school students of all skill levels are invited to participate.
The high school championship will include both team and individual chess scoring. Being a Regional Championship, winning high school teams will qualify to play in the 57th annual Washington State High School Chess Team Championships, which will be held on March 3-4 at Stanwood High School.
In the past, high school teams would qualify for the state championship by winning their local high school chess league. Last March, regional qualifying tournaments were introduced to provide a direct path to the state championships for areas without a high school chess league, such as Grays Harbor County. Students wishing to play must reside in western Washington, south and west of King County.
Entry into the tournaments is free, courtesy of non-profits Washington High School Chess Association and Chess Enrichment Association. Advance registration is required.

Anatomy education is preventative care!
The best way to keep everyone safe and healthy is to make sure we all have the language to talk about our anatomy. Participants will deepen their knowledge of reproductive anatomy by making anatomy collages while they hear “the story of the egg” and “the story of the sperm.” We will offer a show and tell about period care products so that everyone knows their options and the pros and cons of various methods. Participants will leave the program equipped with the knowledge to better advocate and care for their bodies.
