About Swim&Gym Camp
Started in 2003 as a partnership between SwimWest Swim School and Badger Gymnastics Academy, Swim&Gym Camp was created for parents looking for a fun, active, and memorable summer experience for their children. Since that time Swim&Gym has grown into the most popular sports camp in Madison. (Click here for a sample schedule.)

Though sports play a role in our camp, children don't need to be athletes to enjoy it. Our objective is to guide and teach every camper according to their ability while making the activities fun and rewarding. Our counselors work hard to coach, educate, and motivate each camper on an individual level.

Co-ed camp open to children five to thirteen years old.
Composed of ten, one-week sessions (you may sign up for one, multiple, or all sessions) and the new special bonus week, Adventure Time.
Activities include swimming, gymnastics, field sports, soccer, karate, and more!
Each week of camp is built around particular themes, including On Wisconsin, Under the Big Top, and Spy Kids (full list of themes).
Every week also incorporates a field trip to such places as Schuster's Playtime Farm, Camp Randall, Boulders Climbing Gym and Henry Vilas Zoo (full list of locations).

Our girls had never been to a summer camp before until their friends recommended Swim&Gym. Everything they said was right; they had a lot of fun learning gymnastics and swimming and have even asked to continue their swim lessons at SwimWest in the fall. Thank you for giving my girls a summer to remember.
The Griffin Family
This was Joey’s third year at Swim&Gym, and he looks forward to it every year! He attends camp all summer long and makes so many new friends. The counselors and coaches are very attentive to each camper’s needs, and they work hard to make every camper feel welcome in a new environment.

My son’s first year was a little scary for him because he didn’t know anyone, but he made friends the very first day! I would recommend Swim&Gym to any parent out there looking for a fun alternative to summer daycare.

The Siman Family
Swim&Gym was so much fun this year! It’s all my kids talked about. They loved getting to make-up their team names and meeting all the new campers every week. Their favorite sports were tennis, basketball, and gymnastics!

The extended care was a huge help with my work schedule, and the kids enjoyed spending even more time with their friends after camp. Thanks for a wonderful summer!

The Johnston Family
Jolee had an excellent time this summer with her friends at camp. The variety of sports keeps the campers busy all week and it’s never repetitive. Everyday it’s something new. We plan to bring even more friends to camp next year!
