Children's Chess Club

Your child can join other young chess players for a friendly game session designed for kids with comparable skill levels. This relaxed, welcoming environment is perfect for elementary-aged players who want to practice their game and connect with peers who share their interest. The group is kept intentionally small—capped at 16 participants—so everyone gets plenty of attention and playing time. This is a drop-off program, making it convenient for parents. Kids ages 8–12 are welcome, and spots are limited. To secure your child's place, register online or call 803-547-4114 starting November 6. The program also emphasizes social and emotional learning, helping children build confidence, respectful interactions, and the ability to recognize and respond thoughtfully to emotions—both their own and others'.
