Swim Program

Swimming at BT Camps is a time-honored tradition. Our unparalleled swim program combines a supportive teaching philosophy with incredible expertise. Since we offer instructional swim 4 days a week (barring any special events or extraneous circumstances—”hot day” schedules, etc.), our campers make tremendous progress throughout the camp season at his/her own pace. We provide a skill-based swim program based upon the American Red Cross Learn to Swim guidelines, designed to help develop water safety, skills, and stroke development. Our Instructional Swim Coordinators send home introductory swim level group information and updated progress reports when campers advance in their respective swim level.

Campers have the option to be tested for additional water activity privileges at our lake and pool. If they pass, they will receive a band that must remain on their wrist throughout their time with us in order to continue participating in these activities.
