Introduction

You are starting up a new and exclusive Water Sports Camp. As the Camp Director you will design a unique water experience as money is no option. You will be setting up programs for three (3) levels of campers (Tadpoles – grades K-3; Goldfish – grades 4-6; Sharks – grades 7-9.) You will describe each program, in detail, to entice parents to sign up their children for a summer of water fun!

Task

Your task for this project is to develop 3, 8 session Water Sports programs for three (3) levels of campers at an exclusive summer camp.  Design three different programs, one for each age group (Tadpoles – grades K-3; Goldfish – grades 4-6; Sharks – grades 7-9.) Make a Power Point presentation to explain, in detail, what your Water Sports Camp has to offer. 

Each group should be offered a minimum of 8 sessions for their Water Sports program experience. For example, the Tadpoles could be offered a basic 8 session swimming class while the Sharks could be offered an 8 session course of water games such as water polo, water volleyball, etc.
