Activities in these programs go above and beyond our normal camp offerings. Aquatics Camp August 16-21 Splash into adventure at Lake Arrowhead. Spend a week in the water swimming, kayaking, canoeing, rowing, paddling, sailing, snorkeling and lifesaving. Aquatics camp will also include motor boating and water skiing on Long Island Sound.
