The fellowship hall at First Baptist Church in Copperas Cove was buzzing with conversation as members of the Christian Home Educators’ Support System (CHESS) held their 2016-2017 school year kickoff bash.
The evening was open to potential new members as well, and featured a free sub sandwich dinner for families that filled the hall.
Beth Edwards is president of the group, which she said is made up of anywhere from 85-110 families during the course of a school year. Last year CHESS held its back to school event in Killeen, but this year in Copperas Cove, with what Edwards called a great turnout.
