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 18th 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!!
Rochester Chess Center is adjacent to Cobbs Hill Park, so
there will be daily outings to the park for seasonal activities, so
come dressed for the action!
