Syllabus needed for Chess merit badge class (summer camp)
NOTE: This topic has been moved from Tom B ⇒ Talk:Chess. —RWSmith (Bureaucrat), 12:58, March 12, 2012 (EDT)
I have been asked by a council to prepare a syllabus for the Chess merit badge class for summer camp... I am hoping someone has already prepared one and would be willing to share.
It could be beneficial if meritbadge.org had syllabuses for the merit badges like it has worksheets. :) Thanks, —Tom B, March 8, 2012
