2019 Girls Summer Chess Camp Scholarship - Apply Now
The Madison City Chess League is pleased to announce that it will sponsor two girls who live in North Alabama to attend Mid-South Summer Chess Camp, a week-long overnight chess camp in Memphis. One of the most impactful ways we can help encourage girls to play competitive chess is to assist them in training and growing their skills.
More info on the camp can be obtained here: http://www.chesscamp.us/. The early registration deadline for the summer camp is April 15, 2019 ($395) and ($425) by May 20th.
Deadline to apply: Monday, April 22, 2019 (note: if you register by April 15th for summer chess camp and are selected to receive the scholarship, you will be allowed to pay the early tuition fee and apply the rest of the scholarship toward the residence fee.)
