Welcome to The Waypoint Foundation!
At The Waypoint Foundation, we believe strongly in giving back to our community. After all, we have been the recipients of the generosity of many individuals and organizations throughout our lives.
The development of The Waypoint Foundation activities have been based around the specific ways we, the trustees, have been beneficiaries of other people's generosity in our lives. Some of these activities include being recipients of academic scholarships, participating in scholastic chess tournaments, international travel as exchange students, and great experiences in youth scouting programs.
Cristian Velasco of Mattawa took the 2025 championship prize having defeated both Bruce Yurian and Emanuel Santiago in the playoff round. Congratulations to Cristian and all of the other participants for their efforts during the tournament. Additionally, Soap Lake, Ephrata, Lake Roosevelt, and New Life Christian schools qualified to send teams to the 2024 state high school team championships, and three individual K-6 participants qualified to participate in the 2024 elementary championships.
