Are there extracurricular activities appropriate for my 9-year old?

Each night has a group activity which is appropriate for all ages.

Do I have to dive off the three-meter springboard and platform during camp?

We try to expose all campers to all facets of diving. We will not force anyone to do anything they are not prepared to do. We find the three-meter springboard and the platform to be essential in a person's growth as a diver.
