If your child takes to the water like a fish, he may be ready for swim camp. He will learn according to his abilities. Swimming camp is designed to help the camper progress at his or her own pace, and they are often segregated into appropriate age and ability level groups. One camp may focus on beginners, teaching the basics, plus getting kids used to being in the water and building skills from there. More advanced camps focus on swimming techniques such as the breast stroke and butterfly, along with CPR and other life-saving techniques.
Levels of Expertise: One swim camp may offer more recreational swim classes, while other swim camps may focus more on competitive swimming. In these classes, geared toward older children and teens, instructors teach kids how to improve upon existing skills, such as starts and turns, stroke techniques, speed and overall competitive performance.
Counselor Certifications: All swim counselors should be certified. Some have more experience and certifications than others. Many are former Olympians or current head coaches and university swimmers. All should have received a complete background check.
What to Pack: Bring a swim suit of course, plus any accessories such as bathing caps for girls. Overnight camps will require a sleeping bag and toiletries, plus spending money and comfort items.
