INTRODUCTION TO ARTISTIC SWIMMING + SHOWCASE

Synchronized swimming is a combination of the grace of gymnastics, the artistic flair of dance, and the athletics of swimming and diving. At the end of this 20-week program, all the swimmers will get the opportunity to display their new knowledge of the sport in a 30-minute showcase.

All swimmers must be a Stage 4 level swimmer or higher (ability to swim 15-20 yard continuously and tread water for 20-30 seconds) to qualify for this program.

UNPLUGGED. CONNECTED.

At Quest Camps 2026, campers from preschool through entering grade 9 step into a summer that’s truly UNPLUGGED. CONNECTED. It is a return to the basics of outdoor fun, imagination, and friendships built face-to-face. Here, curiosity leads the way, and each day feels like a fresh start waiting to be filled with real-world adventure.

Quest Camps blends the classics of summer fun with hands-on experiences that spark creativity. From active games on the field to the wonders of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), campers unplug from the fast-paced, digital world and plug into something better: connection, teamwork, discovery, and simple summer joy. Whether attending for a session or joining us for a single week, campers experience meaningful moments that last long beyond the summer.

SUMMER DAY CAMPS BEGIN: Monday, June 22, 2026.

PRIORITY MEMBER REGISTRATION BEGINS: Tuesday, January 12, 2026 at 9AM.

OPEN REGISTRATION FOR ALL BEGINS: Friday, January 16, 2026 at 9AM.
