**Dear Chess.com Community,**

As I prepare to leave for the summer, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve shared and express my heartfelt gratitude for the connections and memories we've created together. Chess.com has been more than just a website for me; it has evolved into a vibrant space for learning, growth, competition, and the forging of meaningful friendships.

I am thankful to everyone I have met along this journey—whether you’re a newcomer eager to learn, a long-time member who has witnessed the evolution of our community, or a friend who knows me outside of this platform. Unfortunately, I must return my school-issued Chromebook, which means time to say goodbye, at least for now. This farewell feels particularly challenging, and as I sit here typing, I am overwhelmed with emotions because I know I will miss each of you profoundly. Thank you for embracing me, as I embrace myself as a furry.

Every match I played, every game analyzed, and every discussion we shared has deepened my love for this timeless game of chess. I will forever cherish the knowledge gained and the friendships formed here. Your support and encouragement throughout this journey have meant the world to me, and I am endlessly grateful for the trust we’ve built together.

I also want to take a moment to acknowledge those who work tirelessly to combat bullying and create a supportive environment. Thank you for your invaluable efforts. Your commitment to kindness and inclusion has made our community a brighter, more welcoming place.

Although I will be stepping away for the summer, I will hold the experiences I gained in this extraordinary community close to my heart. I wish you all great success and joy in your chess endeavors and life. I sincerely hope our paths cross again someday, as the memories we've created together will always stay with me. Thank you to all my dear friends for the moments we’ve shared; your friendship means a lot to me.

Warm wishes to all of you,
