2018 Summer Chess Camp
Because
this is our
28th year of offering camps, our
counselors are among the most experienced
chess teachers found anywhere. We
coordinate daily activities and instruction to
expand the students' chess skills. Chess
is known to teach logic, problem solving,
analysis techniques, and will improve study
habits. These skills will carry over to
school and career.
But the main reason kids come back is. . .
We have fun!! |
