Summer
chess camp in Algonquin Park
This summer, from August 20-27, I will be conducting a summer chess camp
in Algonquin Park, at the Madawaska Sunshine Camp on the shores of the
beautiful Madawaska River. The camp will include chess and a variety of
other outdoor activities. GM Dimitry Tyomkin, winner of the
2004 Canadian Open and a member of the Canadian Olympic Chess team, has
agreed to partipate at the camp.
This chess camp is open to any young Canadian chess player between the
age of 8 and 16. This chess camp has a capacity for 30 players.
For those who would like to check out the camp before hand, there will
be an open house from April 29 to May 12, by appointment. Hotels and
Motels are available within 10-15 minutes drive from the camp.
If this camp is successful, we will organize a 3-week international camp
next year.
To find out more about myself or the camp, you can visit our website at

You are also welcome contact either myself for chess information, or
