A team of qualified administrators develop plans insuring that children
will safely enjoy themselves. Summer Camp swim staff are certified

Counselors are teachers and college-age students with an expressed
interest in working with our youth. Staff return to ACT year after
year and have been enrolled in our programs themselves. Our staff
is encouraged to directly communicate with parents regarding each
child's progress. Staff meetings and training sessions are held
before and during each program season. All staff are closely supervised
and formally evaluated.
