The City of Martensville is partnering with Saskatchewan Artistic Swimming to bring a Mobile Sport Camp to the community this summer, offering local youth the opportunity to discover a unique sport that combines athleticism, creativity, and fun in the water.
Taking place July 24th to 26th at the Martensville Aquatic Centre, the camp is designed for children ages six and older who enjoy activities such as dance, cheerleading, gymnastics, or theatre. Participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of artistic swimming through a combination of in-water and dryland training sessions.
Artistic swimming blends elements of swimming, dance, strength, flexibility, and teamwork into choreographed routines performed in the water. Organizers say the camp provides an excellent introduction to the sport while helping participants build confidence, coordination, and teamwork skills in a fun and supportive environment.
While no previous artistic swimming experience is required, participants should be comfortable swimming in deep water.
The camp schedule includes a Friday evening session from 7:00pm to 9:00pm on July 24th, followed by sessions on Saturday, July 25th and Sunday, July 26th from 11:00am to 1:30pm.
The camp will be held at the Martensville Aquatic Centre, located at 927 3rd Street North.
Registration costs $50 per participant. Interested families must complete the online registration form through Saskatchewan Artistic Swimming and submit a signed waiver by email before the registration deadline. Registration closes on July 17th.
With a focus on learning new skills, building friendships, and gaining confidence in the water, organizers hope the camp will introduce more young people to the exciting world of artistic swimming and inspire a lifelong love of aquatic sport.
