This year, during session 3, an Advanced Camp wil be held in addition to our
regular camp. Serious chess players are encouraged to
inquire about their qualification for this week.

Camps are available to kids age 5-13 years. All skill levels from beginner to advanced are encouraged to come. Beginners who arrive without any knowledge of the game will become proficient players from their camp experience; advanced players will benefit from sharing classes and experiences with some of the top youth players in the US.

Because this is our 17th year of offering camps, our counselors are among the most experienced chess teachers found anywhere. We coordinate daily activities and insruction 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!!
