Students had a chance to challenge Orrin “Checkmate” Hudson in a game of chess during Chick-fil-A’s “Kids Night,” which was held on May 9 at the Turner Hill Road location in the city of Stonecrest. Hudson, who teaches students problem-solving skills and how to overcome adversity, told students that they must “put brains before bullets and the only way to fight is to use your head.” The city of Stonecrest Mayor pro tem Diane Adoma and Council member George Turner attended the event.
Hudson is hosting a summer boot camp for children and adults June 5-9, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Be Someone training facility, 949 Stephenson Road, Stone Mountain(across from Stephenson Middle School). For more information, call 770-465-6445.
