2nd Annual KML Chess Camp is Complete

What a week we had! With the help of our KML High School chess players and alumni, we were able to give very strong instruction time and attention to each camper. Join me in thanking the high school students who gave their time this week to teach our campers.

Below are a few photos and memorable moments. If you have any feedback about camp, please contact us at chess@kmlhs.org, or leave a comment here on this blog. Also contact me if you have questions about how to facilitate your child’s advancement in chess. 

We hope your students continue to play improve.
