Summer Swim
Dive Into Fun
For more than four decades, Guilford Racquet & Swim Club has brought friends and families together through great activities and organized programming.
Along with being an athletic club, we also offer a resort-like setting around the pool coupled with professional swim coaching and lessons in Guilford, CT.
Enjoy a cushioned lounge chair under an umbrella while enjoying your book! Come by for one of our poolside events and invite your friends for a day at the pool. We have a talented GRSC swim staff that teaches swimmers everything from the fundamentals for water safety through competition-level strokes.

Summer Camp
We are excited to have our GRSC Day Camp run for another year. It is a fully-licensed day camp located at 420 Church Street in Guilford, CT, on the grounds of Guilford Racquet & Swim Club. We have an outdoor, solar-heated swimming pool, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a brand new playground, a Gaga ball pit, and more.
Our summer camp is for children ages four to twelve. Campers are placed into age-based groups. We will try to put friends together if we are given advance notice, and if they are within the same age range. Every week includes daily instructional tennis, pickleball, pool time, games, arts and crafts, playground time, DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) and Fun Fridays, among other activities. GRSC Day Camp runs rain or shine!
