Swimming Program

We know that many parents choose Richmond Hill Country Club Day Camp because of the outstanding reputation of our swim program. With our heated outdoor pool and heated indoor pool, our swimming program is such a key component of the camper's day at RHCC Day Camp! We believe that swimming is a "life skill" as well as a sport and our program is designed to develop the confidence and competence of our campers in the water.

All campers (except for Golf, Tennis & CIT) participate in instructional swimming lessons in the morning in a small group taught by our certified instructors as well as and a fun recreational swim daily.

Small Group Instruction:

Instruction takes place in small groups with children who have comparable swimming skills. Our swim instructors and counsellors provide small group lessons, and make swimming a positive, comfortable activity. Our youngest campers receive instruction in the shallow end of the pool. Our instruction caters to all levels of experience, from the child still learning to blow bubbles to the child perfecting their advanced strokes. A key to our swim program's success is the personalization of your child's program. Each camper's progress is monitored by their swim instruction to ensure they are learning at the pace that is just right for them.

Your Child's Progress:

We know how important it is to keep you updated on your child's progress in the pool. At the end of each session, campers

will receive an updated report indicating the skills they achieved throughout the summer as well as any badges they have earned.
