Chelsea Piers offers scholarships to Carver campers

Chelsea Piers offers a fun camp experience in their world-class facilities in Stamford, with expert instruction and the best sports curriculum available in Westchester and Fairfield County.

They are giving scholarships to six Carver summer campers for the week of August 19 to the 23rd. Carver kids will receive sports programming for all experience levels. Our campers chose their camps for basketball and gymnastics.

Campers go swimming!

Crawl, walk, run, swim. That’s the order a parent ⏤ whether a proficient lap swimmer or one still deathly afraid of the water ⏤ should think about their child’s physical milestones. Few life skills are as important as the ability to survive in the water. And swimming lessons, from learning how to float, to treading water, to clocking a 23-second, 50-meter freestyle and winning the gold medal, is where it all starts. Carver has a partnership with the Riverbrook Regional Y Youth Swimming Lesson Program and we also bring all our campers in gender and age group shifts to the more local Velo-CT 50 Meter Olympic size pool.
