Camp Splash
Camp Splash is provided with support from the UVM Children’s Hospital and an anonymous donor. Drowning is a leading cause of death among children. Camp Splash teaches life-saving water safety to children at all swim levels, age 3 and over. During this 3 day summer swim lesson, we teach water safety rules, “Reach, Throw, Don’t Go,” and some basic strokes to gain comfort and confidence.
