Chess Mini Camps with The Knight School
These Mini Chess Camps are a unique opportunity to focus on lessons usually reserved for Summer Chess Camps, as well as review and hone skills we practice all year long. We’ll also be playing Chess Ninja, ChessMaster Says, and other extra games that don’t always fit into our school year limitations. This is a super-fun, high-energy chess experience in which kids celebrate a new chess tactic each day! Laughter, fast clocks, and compelling teaching approaches make this camp the Winter Break highlight for hundreds of kids nationwide.
