Hess Academy Chess Camp

The Knight School Summer Chess Camps are the perfect way to get ready to join your school's official chess team and chess party in the fall. Chess Camp has a fun and friendly spirit and is a great way to keep the brain sharp during the summer while having a real blast!

Chess Camp is a super-fun, high-energy chess experience in which kids celebrate a new chess tactic each day with silly videos, music-driven puzzlers for prizes, colorful silicone Tactixbands, funny movies, and chess clock tourneys! Laughter, fast-clocks, and compelling teaching approaches make this camp the summer's highlight for the current hundreds of kids who make up the awesome network of The Knight School's nationwide chess teams.

New this summer, chess camp will have completely brand-new and uniquely themed lessons about a different chess opening strategy EACH WEEK! It's the perfect way to get a leg up on the students who skipped camp this week!
