Lifescouts: Chess

Chess Badge

My dad is really into chess, so much so that he has books of maneuvers filling up his bookshelves. Eager to understand what all these books were about, I asked him to teach me how to play chess one day. Of course, I could never beat him. I could never master planning a move three steps ahead.  So I, instead, taught my cousins to play in hopes that I could win. And I did. Every time.

Favorite move: Castling kingside (or as I've always thought of it: building a fort for your king)
