Swimming Camp
Join us for camp in The St. James Pool House—one of the only full indoor Olympic size swimming pools in the area!
The St. James Swim Camp provides a safe and fun environment for swimmers of all levels, from beginners to competitive athletes, to learn a variety of strokes and techniques, as well as boost endurance and confidence in the pool. After a skill assessment, campers are placed in groups for tailored instruction. With a mix of fun drills, races, and relay games, campers gain confidence, speed, and efficiency in the water.
To balance training, campers also get time to have fun out of the pool in our field house and waterpark, creating a memorable summer experience!

STJ aims to provide an environment where campers can benefit from small group instruction. For our younger campers (7 and under), STJ’s goal is to maintain a camper to counselor ratio of approximately 9:1 in their individual group. For older campers (8 and up), the approximate ratio is 10:1. For the site as a whole, the approximate camper-to-counselor ratio is 7:1 including the STJ Leadership Team, such as the Camp Director, Assistant Camp Director and on-site safety representatives.
