SUMMER CHESS
AT THE SOLOMON SCHECHTER
SCHOOL OF WESTCHESTER
CHESS PROGRAM 2013
Come join other scholastic players at the
Solomon Schechter Upper School for a
summer chess experience you won’t forget.
Located in central Hartsdale, our daily
program features a balance of formal chess
instruction and friendly competition.
All participants will receive both group and
individual instruction.
The NSCF staff features full-time chess
professionals who all share an enthusiasm
for working with children. Every teacher is
an active tournament player as well as a
provider of classroom instruction. It is this
flexibility that enables our staff to reach each
and every player!
A daily hot lunch and afternoon snack are
included in the full time camp fee.
There is a half day option available ending
or starting at noon. (Lunch is not included in
the half day camp fee.)
Summer Chess alumni rave:
“This place is great!! It's fun because you get
to play outside, and learn and play chess.
(and the Italian Ice's are awesome).
I've learned chess openings that I didn't even
know existed and got to play great games
with my friends outside. I can't wait to come
back!”
- Calvin Golimbu, 4th Grade
"I enjoyed going to the summer chess
program. We had lots of fun playing each
other and learning from reviewing some of
the games played by famous players. You get
to go outside, play basketball, football and
more during the breaks. You also make a lot
of friends.”
