Program Overview

Swim. Train. Play.

Old City Kids Summer Camp is a full-day program designed around athletic development, not babysitting. Every day includes structured pool time — real instruction, real progress.

Swim Instruction

Daily pool time with structured swim instruction. Campers continue their OCSS level progression or are introduced to the curriculum for the first time.

Fitness & Athletics

Structured physical activity beyond the pool. Functional fitness, games, and athletic development — not just structured sitting.

Activities

Organized group activities, games, and events through the week. A full-day summer program, not just swim lessons with gaps.

Swim at Camp

Real instruction, not free swim

Every camper gets structured swim instruction time — not just pool access. Coaches work the OCSS curriculum during camp, so returning swimmers continue their level progression and new swimmers enter the system.

Campers who finish Level 10 during a camp week ring the bell. It happens. It's a big deal.

Common questions

What ages is camp for?

Ages 4–12. Swim instruction is adapted to the child's current level within the OCSS 10-level curriculum.

Does my child need to know how to swim?

No. Campers are placed in the right level — including Level 1 for brand-new swimmers. The curriculum handles where they are, not where you wish they were.

How big are the camp groups?

We're expanding to 50 campers per week in 2026. Groups are managed for coaching quality — not stuffed to max capacity.

What do campers need to bring?

Swimwear and goggles for pool time. A lunch. Comfortable athletic clothes for activities. Sunscreen. More specifics provided upon enrollment.

What if I want to register for multiple weeks?

Multiple-week enrollment is available. Contact us for details on scheduling consecutive or non-consecutive weeks.
