Camp Praise

"I just want to let you know that words cannot describe our gratitude for [our son's] extraordinary experience at Kenyon's Elite Sprint camp. [He] spoke to us at enormous length about Coach Steen, the assistant coaches, the visiting coaches and record holders, the depth of programming, the hard work, the hands-on attention, the character of everyone involved in the camp, Coach Steen's passion, devotion and love for those swimmers, the facilities, the classroom learning, the individual valuations...everything. And even after describing all of that, [he] would say...it was all just unbelievable, indescribable."

"Your camp totally satisfied my expectations for our son who was a first time camp attendee. Most importantly, he has developed passion and excitement for swimming. He has not missed a 7 a.m. practice since arriving home!"
- Nanci and Brian, 2011

I just wanted to email you and let you know that my daughter just returned from camp yesterday. She had the best time and felt like she learned so much. Please thank the coaching staff at the camp, especially Natalie. She will be back next year!

"I just wanted to tell you what a great experience my girls had a camp this past week. My kids have been to swim camps at UNC, Auburn, and NBAC and the TPSC camp was BY FAR the best. The individual attention, technical expertise, and classroom instruction were fabulous. I can’t say enough about how professional and well-run the camp was and what a great motivator it was for my girls."

"I recently attended the TPSC breastroke and IM camps. I just wanted to let you know that I had one of the best swimming summers of my life because of the help that you and the camps gave me. I got my first junior national cut in the 100m breastroke and I hope on also getting the 200 IM and 200 breaststroke cuts this coming winter. Thanks again for all of your help."

"I just wanted to say how impressed I am with the camp that I sent my daughter to last week. In each of her time trials yesterday she dropped time, in one 50 she dropped nearly 2 seconds. Furthermore she is begging to go back next year. Job well done!"
-Angela, 2010

I'm coming, no matter what!

"Even though Bartholomew County, Indiana was declared a national disaster area, and our country home was surrounded by thousands of acres of flooded farm land, we were determined to walk a quarter mile through waste deep water (had been chest deep) to my truck on the other side so he could get to [Total Performance Swim Camp @ Kenyon College], once waters started to subside. His sister, Victoria, was bringing up the rear with the camera. It was a slow walk, but Sam and his 2 buddies eventually got to Gambier, Ohio Sunday night."
