Types of Summer Camps We Offer

SwimRVA offers a variety of summer swim camp options to suit your child’s interests, skill level and goals. Here is a comprehensive list of the types of camps we offer:

• General Summer Camps: Our general summer swim camps begin in June and last through August. Most general camps are week-long programs that run Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Days are built around a range of engaging activities, from journaling upon arrival to winding down with yoga or a movie — with two swim lessons and energetic activities in between.
• Summer League Tune-Up Camp: If you are a member of one of our summer swim teams or are involved on your school swim team, our summer tune-up league can help you maintain your skills off-season. This camp runs two separate times in the summer — a week in June and a week in July, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
• Junior Lifeguarding Camps: For a week in either June or July, your 11-14-year-old can learn the basics of lifeguarding and life support. This 30-hour course covers CPR and first aid certifications using on-land and in-water activities and simulations.
• Water Sports Camps: Our water sports camps are focused on older kids, teaching them a different activity every day from Monday through Friday. Some water sports we teach include kayaking, water polo, synchronized swimming, paddle boarding and log rolling.
• Mermaid Camp: SwimRVA offers a mermaid camp for children who can’t wait to try out their own mermaid tail. This program encourages whimsical imagination and creativity, centered around mermaid-themed activities.
• Water Polo Camp: Combine swimming, soccer, basketball and hockey into one sport with water polo. SwimRVA’s water polo camp provides a basic introduction to water polo and can encourage your child to join our youth water polo team!
