SUMMER CAMP | HOMESCHOOL PODS | FAIR PLAY, SC - LAKE HARTWELL

Our youth paddle boarding Summer camp gives kids 7-14 an exciting mix of on‑water adventure, outdoor exploration, and hands‑on learning. Instead of watching from shore, campers paddle, balance, ride TANDEM, and PARTICIPATE IN RELAYS, VELCRO CATCH - build real confidence on the water every day. Life long friendships

Safety is always our top priority. Every child wears a USCG‑approved life jacket, and we include regular sunscreen, hydration, and safety breaks throughout each session.

Our program is active, engaging, and student‑centered. Campers learn through movement, curiosity, teamwork, and fun challenges — A high‑energy paddle boarding camp! Kids enjoy relays, musical paddleboards, Velcro catch, limbo, back‑bend & jump‑rope challenges, tug‑of‑war, Team games with goggles/boogie boards/cornhole, dodgeball & bubbles more — all while staying safe on the water. Check the schedule for 3 day a week program, first one starts end of June, 3 weeks this summer M-W-F 9am-11am

Our Mommy & Me Paddle Class is a gentle, beginner‑friendly introduction to the water designed especially for young children ages 1+ and their caregivers. Together, you’ll float on stable boards in a calm, protected cove where little ones can explore at their own pace while feeling safe, supported, and close to you.  We will start at the shoreline and stay close to the shore.  Both adult and child will start sitting on the boards.  It would be unusual for them to feel safe getting off the paddle board in the lake, so we stay closer where they can see the bottom and feel they can safely jump or fall into the water.

This class blends simple water play with confidence‑building moments: blowing bubbles, splashing, trying easy balance games, and discovering how fun the water can be when it’s calm and predictable. Caregivers stay on the board with their child the entire time, helping them feel secure as they learn to trust the board, the water, and themselves.  Everyone is in USCG-PFD.  We will have a little snack break on the water.

We move slowly, celebrate small wins, and never push kids beyond what feels comfortable. The goal is to gently reduce fear of deep or open water while creating positive memories, strengthening caregiver‑child connection, and introducing the basics of paddle safety in a playful, age‑appropriate way.

It’s a sweet, relaxed experience perfect for little ones who are brand‑new to the water, hesitant swimmers, or kids who simply love exploring nature with their favorite grown‑up. No experience is needed from caregiver.
