Summer Camps with Bay Area Chess

Published: Fri, 05/20/16

Dear Parents and Students,

We are nearing at the end of the school year, and proud to say that we have closed a historical school year. 
With school is ending, SUMMER CAMPS ARE STARTING!
I'm sure I'm not the only mom who would like to find quality programs for our children. Our camps have specifically been designed to provide an educational yet fun environment, challenge them with their peers and friends, and at the end of the week, they will go home with an amazing summer camp experience.

Please, read our information below, browse our website and let us know if you have any questions.
We are always here to help, and make amazing things happen for you and your child.
Many thanks!
Judit
