Dr. Kirshner's Summer Chess Camp

yes, there is a summer chess camp going on at Weibel this summer.  Well, not at the school, but in the neighborhood.  Dr. Kirshner again is holding his annual development summer chess camp for K-2 Weibel-enrolled students who are going on to the team for the following school year.  The purpose of this camp is to give the kids continuity in their chess studies and to get them a head start in their chess development for next year. 

The first summer semester tournament for this camp is now in the books, and the results are here.  The 2 top finishers are Louis Law and Ryan Song.  Not surprisingly, they are 2 players who play fairly regularly in tournaments.  Note to parents on the team - the way to improve is to play regularly in tournaments, and not just play the minimum amount of tournaments required.
