Bughouse Marathon

August 13th

Despite a beautiful day, summer camps and vacations, an enthusiastic crowd arrived at the club to participate in our first ever Bughouse Marathon!  There were two teams in each division (K-2, 3-5 and 6-8).  As it worked out, there were many evenly matched teams and it was impossible to predict which would emerge victorious.  Amazingly, a team from the 3-5 division composed of Alex Mayo and Sofia Medina, won the tournament outright scoring an incredible 26/30 points!  In second place was "Everyone was all smiles as they finished their pizza and went running back for more bughouse.  The day could not have been any better!
