Campers will swim indoors or outdoors every day of the week. Most camp activities are held outdoors with indoor activities provided based on the day. Day campers are divided into groups by grade level or age.

The program's primary goal is to empower teens with leadership abilities that extend to their school, home, and community life.

Once an application is received, the Camp Director will contact the applicant to arrange an interview and screening, finalizing the selection process. It's important to note that due to limited space, not all interviewed applicants will be selected.
