Chess Camp
Looking for a fun way to train your brain?  Join us at Buffalo Chess Association for after school lessons!  We supply all the equipment for the program, so all students need to do is provide their thinking caps.
Lessons are available for both beginner and intermediate levels.  Students will learn the tactical and strategic fundamentals of chess, and then build upon them.  Students in the program will be given details about local tournaments and other chess related events that will occur this year.
