SWIM CAMP EXPERIENCE:
The CSB/SJU Swim Camp is a stroke technique focused camp open to all boys and girls entering into their 7th–12th grade year in school, who have had some competitive experience in the world of swimming. Throughout camp we will go through drills and detailed technique work to help athletes improve the efficiency in the water. Camp will include work on all four competitive strokes as well as work on starts and turns. Each camper will also be filmed in each stroke getting individual and group feedback on ways to improve. Beyond the swimming portion of the camp athletes will have fun opportunities including team games and activities as well as time to explore the beautiful campus’s of the College of Saint Benedict  & Saint John’s University. Each camp will spend some time at both of the two beautiful campuses, including at least one swim session at the CSB pool and/or one at the SJU pool. Counselors working with the athletes are all CSB or SJU current or former swimmers who have a passion or helping others improve in and out of the water.

Swimmers will stay in the dorms on campus, with two athletes to a room. Counselors provide 24-hour supervision of the athletes while on campus. Meals are included with the camp and will take place at one of the two campus dining halls.
Included in the cost of camp is a camp T-Shirt and cap, as well as the videos that are filmed throughout the week (emailed at the request of swimmers).

CAMP SCHEDULE:
Camp each day includes a morning and an afternoon pool session, a separate video breakdown session, as well as some organized activities outside of the pool. All meals are included in the camp and take place at the campus dining hall. On the final day we will hold a mini-meet in order to showcase our newly learned skills.
