What Happens @ Chess NYC Summer Camps!
So let's take a moment and explain a day of Chess NYC Fun & Training Camp for you. While 3 hours of Chess activities are threaded through each full 8 hour day for every Camper, led by Chess NYC's Championship Coaching Staff, (Nationals Champions) that's just the beginning of these great Fun & Training Camps! Outdoor fun, water play and other activities thrill (coax where necessary) and prepare attendees for the next upcoming Chess activities. The Uptown Camp boasts a dunk tank! Village Chess @ Zinc Camp a live treated Washington Square Park fountain! PS 3, sports an incredible enclosed playground and water splashing to spare!! Greenpoint Brooklyn, our newest location, enjoys magnificent Parks nearby, with greenery to spare!! The Hampton's? Well, they're the Hampton's!
While Chess is always available (and of course encouraged) and our extreme young, Chess enthusiasts play and learn even more (some of our kids are very, very advanced) the alternative, FUN activities, Pizza and Ice Cream etc. ensures they'll ALL keep coming back! From absolute beginners to advanced players, Chess NYC's philosophy is to engage each child on their individual level and appetite to play. This approach successfully minimizes resistance and maximizes progress and...as a result...everyone associates Chess with Fun! @ the end of a great day they've had @ least 3 hours of Chess!...a week 15 hours...A month 60 hours! Our talented, excited and eager team is ready to share the love of the game every moment possible and they love doing so!
We'll say it again, for us, "it's more than a game, it's out culture!"
