This is a United States Chess Federation (USCF) rated tournament.  All players must be or become members of the USCF and the Kansas Chess Association (KCA).

A rotating instructional schedule allows campers to study with several members of the staff during the week. Every morning, participants will be playing one round of a G/30 tournament. Friday afternoon will be devoted to the award ceremony during which prizes for winners in all competitions will be awarded. Every day, 90 minutes will be devoted to supervised free time or swimming pool activities. Students will be supervised throughout the week by an experienced counseling staff.
