Below is a partial tentative schedule for 2010. We will accept registrations now for
the camps but while they are listed in blue there is a possibility that their locations will change.

When camps fill we will note that on this page. Camps
in red are full.
Camps in McLean and Vienna usually fill first. We will add
more camps to this schedule, including one
or two in the western parts of Fairfax County.

We take about 30 students in each camp, sometimes more
in the full-day camps, always on a first-come basis. Most
camps fill, so we recommend mailing your registration
to us soon.

We cannot accept registrations on-line.
To register, you must mail us a registration form along with a check.

In addition to teaching chess, we engage in a variety of recreational
activities in each camp. We supply snacks each day and organize
games like Capture the Flag. We go swimming in some of
the full-day camps in the suburbs. Some full-day
camps have the availability of an after-care problem-solving
enrichment program until 5:00 p.m. for an additional fee.
Partial scholarships usually are available for those who
need them. Camp fees include a camp T-shirt.

Additional camps are being scheduled.

Cancellation policy:
Camp registration fees are refundable until one week before the start of camp with a $10 administrative fee. Between one week and the start of camp, 50% of camp fees will be refunded. After the start of the camp there will be no refund.
