Thanks to the generous support of Phillips 66, Epic Adventures Summer Campers will have the opportunity to participate in one to two swim days per week to encourage water safety and youth education on the navigation of pools. Swim days are optional and transportation is provided by CPSB bus drivers. Swim days come at no additional charge to campers.

A parent meeting will be held the week of May 19-23, and parents will receive more information upon the completion of registration.
