Mountain Lake Chess Camp was founded by International Master Larry Evans in 1992 to help train his own son (Cory, who would go on to be a US scholastic Chess Champion). Since then the company has grown to include a weeklong overnight camp and summer day camps, which have been attended by some of the best players in the world. We also teach afterschool chess classes in over 60 schools in the San Diego area, organize local scholastic chess tournaments and offer private chess lessons for all levels.
