Camp Rinconada Swim – Palo Alto Swim
Camp Rinconada Swim
Campers will learn to swim or work on stroke development during their 30 minute daily swim lesson. A child’s swim level is assessed on the first day of camp and campers with similar abilities are grouped together. More advanced swimmers get a workout-style swim session in a 25-yard format to practice their strokes. Beginner swimmers will feature daily hands-on lessons in small focused groups that will invariably lead to rapid advancement in a child’s swim skills.
In addition to swim instruction, campers have daily swim-related workouts, free swim, time for land and camp games, crafts, and a snack. Every Friday we will have “Fun Fridays” that feature music and an extra special group event.
Is This Camp for You?
For ages 7 to 12 years (on the first day of camp).
Camp is for kids who are comfortable in the water, enjoy social group situations, and respond well to instruction
Ideal before any family vacation that includes water activities!
Water time
Each Camper will take part in a 30 minute instructional session every day led by one of our qualified Swim Instructors. We want to ensure no time is wasted and your child starts Camp day one at the appropriate level of instruction. Entry level swimmers will work closely with instructors to develop their water safety and self-rescue skills. Intermediate swimmers will learn new strokes. Advanced swimmers will spend time working on the finer details of each stroke. Keep an eye out for the questions during registrations asking about your child’s swim level. Please view our Levels and Classes here before booking!
At the end of the weeklong camp, each Camper will receive a Swim Instruction Certificate. Your child’s certificate will show the skill level they reached upon completion of camp making it easy for you to transition your child’s swim development into our year-round Swim School.
Field
Our typical field activities will use soccer balls, wiffle ball/bat, frisbees, etc. Also, every Friday we will have water balloons.
Crafts
Everyday there will be small “crafts” such as coloring/drawing or bracelets/lanyards.

KidCheck FAQ
Q: Does my spouse/partner or other guardians need to create a KidCheck account too?
A: Yes, but do not have them add the child onto their account. Once your spouse/partner or other guardians create their KidCheck account you should add them onto your account (the account with the child) as a Guardian.
Q: Why can’t my spouse/partner or other guardians just add the child onto their account?
A: Since KidCheck doesn’t collect personal information like the child’s social security number, your direct relation to the child, or other guardian’s direct relation to the child, or to you, the system won’t recognize the child on separate accounts as being the same child.
Q: The parent of another child and I will be taking turns dropping off or picking up our kids. How do we set this up in KidCheck?
A: First you both will create your separate KidCheck accounts and add only your own child onto your accounts. Then you will add them as a guardian on your account, and they will add you as a guardian onto their account.
Q: I’ve added my child and they are listed in the “Kids” tab but it says “You have not been authorized for any children”. Why is that?
A: Under the “Kids” tab there are two sections. The first section is “My Kids”. Under this section any child you add to your account will show and since they are your kids you automatically have authorization for them. The second section is “Kids I’m Authorized For”. This section will show the kids of other parents that have added you as an authorized guardian for their kids. If you are planning on picking up or dropping off kids other than your own and do not see their names listed under the “Kids I’m Authorized For” section, you need to contact their parent and ask them to add you as an authorized guardian for their child.

Of course, a child can attend an unlimited number of shifts and each new one will be interesting and unique, both in terms of sports and entertainment.
4) What is included in the price?
Everything! Really everything. This includes meals (lunch and afternoon snack), two workouts a day, team-building events, a professional coach and much, much more. Parents don’t have to pay for anything.
5) Who will be with the children during the whole day?
Throughout the duration of the camp with children from morning to evening there will be professional coaches of our swimming school who have extensive experience working with children. They will also organize interesting leisure activities for children in their free time.

Every day there will be training for children in the pool with professional trainers, where each child will be able to train based on their skills and develop the necessary qualities.

8) What is the quality of food in the camp?
We are well aware of the importance of nutrition for a young body. Meals will be two meals a day: lunch and afternoon tea. Children eat in the cafe “Family club”. For all last year’s shifts, we did not have a single complaint about the quality of food. We are following this closely.
9) Where will the camp take place?
This is Gorky Park itself: large and comfortable rooms at Frunze 7, within walking distance (9 min) of a swimming pool, an artificial turf football field, playgrounds. The territory is closed, there is no roadway and for children it is a very good, calm, beautiful and most importantly safe place.

Your child will make new friends, develop discipline, determination and learn to work in a team. In addition, he will develop and improve his swimming skills, physical health. Coaches try to instill in children a love for sports and a desire to take care of their health, their physical form! But let’s not forget that this is also the summer holidays, the sweetest childhood time, and, of course, here your child will be interested and fun. In general, we try to distract children from computers and tablets and show them another, more interesting and useful world of sports and self-development!
11) How is this camp useful for parents?
Summer vacation is a time not only for a child to relax, but also for parents to worry about what to captivate their son or daughter so that they do not sit around the TV or computer for days. Many parents work from morning to evening and do not have the opportunity to control what the child does throughout the day. We are solving this problem. And not only this one. With us, the child will not only be busy with useful, pleasant and fun activities with his peers, but he will still be under the watchful eye of the coaches, that is, he will be safe. You brought the child to the camp before the start of the working day and on the way home you took your son from the camp, where the responsible coach will talk about the success of the child, and the child himself will be full, satisfied and with a lot of pleasant impressions.
12) Have we had experience with such a camp?
Yes, the management of the H2O Swimming School has experience in organizing children’s summer camps since the summer of 2016.
13) Where will the children be during the day?
