Swimming is Mohawk's most important program and truly the pride of our camp. Campers swim twice daily with small-group instruction both in the morning and afternoon. Our swim program is unique because of our:


  • Eight individually heated pools with depths appropriate for all ages and swimming abilities.
  • Over 50 lifeguards, including more than 18 Water Safety Instructors (WSIs).
  • Uncompromising safety standards.
  • Swim groups of 2 to 6 campers per instructor, according to age and ability.
  • Instruction, which is always supervised by WSIs and taught by lifeguard/instructors and highly trained general counselor staff using the American Red Cross Swim Progression.
  • Free Swimming highlighted by games, recreational pool equipment and our SPECTACULAR WATER SLIDES.
  • Swim program for 3 & 4 year olds conducted in specially designed developmental pools by carefully selected pre-school swim staff.



    At Mohawk, we realize that each child's improvement in swimming depends upon feelings of comfort and security in the water as well as the quality of instruction. Therefore, our knowledgeable staff teaches with a focus on providing caring, patient support. This approach, combined with our superb instruction, small swim groups and one-of-a-kind pool facility, has helped generations of Mohawk campers make out-standing progress in swimming!
