14 SWIMMING AT THE CRICKET Children in most camp programs swim every day. Please send a bathing suit with your child; the Club will provide towels. To ensure both a fun and safe swimming experience, our pool is guarded by qualified lifeguards and the staff:camper ratio is lower in the pool (1:4). In addition, counsellors will be in the water with campers to ensure their safety. On the first day of every week, campers perform a deep-end swim test* to determine swimming ability. Returning campers are not required to do this swim test unless they feel their skill level has improved. Colour-coded wristbands will be issued by camp staff upon completion of the swim test. Red - Campers ages 5 years and under as well as non-swimmers. Swimmers wear a lifejacket. The staff-to-child ratio is 1:4 in the shallow end. Yellow - Campers ages 6-9 years who have not passed the facility swim test**. The staff:camper ratio is 1:4 in the shallow end and swimmers are always supervised. They will wear a lifejacket and be within arm s reach of a counsellor. Orange - Campers ages 6+ years who pass the facility swim test**. The staff:camper ratio is 1:4 in the shallow end and swimmers are always supervised. They are not required to wear a lifejacket. Blue - Campers ages 6+ who pass the deep-end swim test* can swim anywhere in the pool, but will be supervised. 14 *The deep-end swim test determines the ability to swim two lengths of the pool without stopping or showing signs of struggle. **The facility swim test determines the ability to swim two widths in the shallow end. Deep-end swim test records are kept by pool staff. SWIM LESSONS - Creative Art, Multi-Sport, Sports Stars and Tiny Tots camps all have mandatory participation in swimming lessons. Swimming is a life skill and we prepare your child for free swim and familiarize campers with the pool rules, the pool facility and the pool staff. Swim lessons are not offered for Dance, Squash and Tennis camps. Please complete the swim lesson registration form. The more information we have on your child s swim level, the easier it is for us to identify the appropriate group. If the swim level is unknown, children can be screened ahead of time at no additional cost during family swim times. The level recommended by the instructor will then be included on the Camper Swim Lesson form. The cost of the lessons is included in the cost of camp for Tiny Tots, Multi-Sport, Sports Stars and Art camps.
