In addition, counsellors are in the water with campers to ensure their safety.

On the first day of each week, campers perform a deep-end swim test*. Returning campers are not required to do this swim test unless they feel their skill level has improved.

Colour-coded wristbands are issued by camp staff upon completion of the swim test.

RedRed - Ages 5 years and under, as well as non-swimmers. Swimmers wear a lifejacket and stay in the shallow end. The staff:camper ratio is 1:4.

**The Facility swim test determines the ability to swim two widths in the shallow end.

SWIM LESSONS - Swimming is a life skill and we prepare your child for free swim and familiarize campers with the pool rules, the pool facility and the pool staff.

If the swim level is unknown, children can be screened ahead of time during family swim times at no additional cost. The level recommended by the instructor will then be included on the Camper Swim Lesson Registration Form.
