Ranae Bartlett has done some amazing work in her time as a resident of Madison City. In addition to serving on the School Board and presently as the Chair of the City Council, Ranae started the Madison Chess league back in 2013. The league just celebrated its 10th anniversary and has grown each year since inception. There are many exciting tournaments that Madison City will be hosting. Getting girls interested in Chess has been a major push for Ranae and, as you will hear in this episode, that objective has been more than achieved!
