St. Olaf College's annual Swim Camp started last weekend with a new session designed especially for highly dedicated swimmers. The new Elite Swim Camp offers committed male and female athletes in middle and high school opportunities to improve their physical and psychological swimming skills.
Campers receive instruction through pool sessions, dry-land training and individual analysis.
The camps allow boys and girls ages 8-17 to focus on improving their skills and team spirit through workouts and recreational activities. Directors of the St. Olaf Swim Camps are Dave Hauck and son Bob Hauck. Under the leadership of the Haucks, the St. Olaf College men's and women's swim teams have won numerous conference championships and All-American honors. Dave Hauck is a member of the Minnesota Swimming Hall of Fame, and Bob won seven national titles as a world-ranked backstroker. St. Olaf Avenue, Northfield, MN 55057-1098.
