Overnight & Commuter Camps

2021 CAMP DATES:   JUNE 13-17, JUNE 20-24, JUNE 27-JULY 1

For 2021 we are limiting to 90 campers per session.  If full, please join the waitlist as we may get cancellations and/or may get an opportunity to increase camp numbers.  If we are able to increase camp numbers, we would know by April 15 and would contact those on waitlist in the order received.

Overnight & Commuter Camps

Our overnight/commuter camp is a great opportunity for you to use our facilities and spend time with our coaching staff. You will have the chance to receive instruction from a variety of coaches and current collegiate swimmers. This camp is perfect for year-round swimmers, summer league swimmers or those that just love to swim! The commuter option is ideal for those in the Raleigh, Cary, Durham, or Chapel Hill, North Carolina areas and the overnight option is great for swimmers from anywhere!

For Summer 2021 we are offering 2 options for each of our camps: TECHNIQUE or TRAINING.

Those who choose the TECHNIQUE option will have a greater focus on stroke improvements and drill work. They will swim twice each day with a 30-minute daily dryland. This option is open to any age (9-18) and is our most popular option.

Those who choose the TRAINING option will have more yardage and intensity incorporated into their swim and dryland sessions but will still also have some technique focus to correct stroke imperfections.  Campers will swim 2-3 times each day with a 45-minute daily dryland.  These swimmers MUST be 12 or older by the start of camp (no exceptions).  Swimmers in the Training group should have experience training doubles and have a regular dryland routine.

Both options are designed for swimmers that have aspirations of improving their strokes and times for high school, club, and/or college swimming.  In addition, both options will cover all 4 strokes, starts, turns, sprint vs. distance training methods, race strategies, and mental preparation.  For safety reasons, this camp requires that each swimmer be able to swim all four competitive strokes legally and registration is limited to ages 9-18.

You may select the track during registration, but final group placements will be done after an initial pool workout.  To maximize a swimmer’s benefits from camp, we may move some campers from Training to Technique per our discretion.  We will not move campers from Technique to Training.

PRICING

Overnight Option: $715

Commuter Option: $615*

*Commuters will have all meals with camp except breakfast daily.  Exact hours of the commuter day will depend upon pool availability and practice times but estimated to be 8:00am-6:00pm. Thursday camp ends at 4:00pm.   When registering, select "Commuter" on the registration question and then use promo code "COMMUTER" FOR $615 pricing.  

A $125 deposit is due at the time of registration with final payment due by May 15.  Due to the unpredictable nature of the COVID-19 situation, ALL payments are refundable at any time prior to camp.  There are no refunds once the camp has started.  If you need to cancel, please let us know as soon as possible so that we may give the opportunity to someone on the waitlist.

We also offer optional underwater video w/commentary as an add-on when registering for either overnight or commuter camp. You may choose whichever stroke(s) you wish to have this for and the cost is $35 per stroke (or start).  You may select these options during registration or anytime prior to camp check-in. Payments for videos are due at camp check-in or prior.  Sibling discounts do not apply to this selection.
