Come explore the power of strategic thinking through fun, engaging, hands-on and strategy-based board-games such as Chess, Mastermind, Blokus, Chinese Checkers, Match Madness, Codenames and many more.

The program will focus on teaching kids new board-games, strategic foundations, skill development and game strategy improvement.
