What if my child does not know how to swim?

What is the difference between day camp and sports camp?
Day campers stay in a group all day with campers their same age and rotate among swimming, rock climbing, archery, fishing, arts & crafts, hockey, dance, and sports games. Sports Campers go to a sports table each morning when they arrive and select their five sessions each day. They then receive more specialized instruction in the selected sports or activities.
