SWIMMING PROGRAM

The Briarwood Day Camp Swim Program is a comprehensive program taught by certified Red Cross instructors. We strictly adhere to the Red Cross guidelines of swim instruction, which include Levels 1 ? 7 for instructional swim. Briarwood accommodates swimmers of all abilities and allows them to progress at their own developmental rate.

Our afternoon swim schedule consistes of free swim for our campers. Briarwood Day Camp enforces the ?Buddy System? enabling campers to swim safely while having fun. We feel that this is the proper procedure to follow because it allows campers to swim with a buddy to ensure their safety.

Our highly qualified and energetic swim staff is determined to make your child?s swimming experience both safe and successful. We are looking forward to spending next summer with your children.

DRAMA SHOWS

Briarwood Day Camp is very proud of their successful drama program. The campers take part each summer in a bunk show choreograped by our experienced drama department along with our very talented bunk counselors. The shows are a hit for all Briarwood family and friends. It's one of the highlights of the Briarwood summer.

Those campers who show an interest in the performing arts are encouraged to join the popular drama club. The campers in this club take part in a musical production that is performed the last week of camp. The shows are a huge success and we always get rave reviews.

We look forward to the 2010 shows and hopefully your camper will be a part of it.
