About Team Life

Our team is built on family, love, and the game of chess. Together, we’re passing lessons of strategy, unity, and service from one generation to the next while giving back to our community. For us, the Classic City Chess-a-Thon is more than just a day of matches; it is a chance to strengthen our bond, honor the lessons we’ve learned from one another, and share those lessons with the world around us. Our team represents the power of family working side by side. Each move we make on the chessboard is a reminder of the values we carry off the board: patience, strategy, resilience, and love. By joining this event together, we are showing how generations can inspire one another and how families can be a force for good in their communities. Through the Chess-a-Thon, we want to pass forward the gift of chess and the spirit of service, reminding everyone that when families unite for a purpose, the whole community grows stronger.
