 Waterfront
The waterfront at Nashoba is an active place where children learn and practice many skills on Fort Pond. Just a mile long and a quarter mile wide it is a perfect size body of water to swim, waterski, wakeboard, windsurf, sail, paddle, row
and fish.
Red Cross instructional swimming is offered daily.
Campers are required to pass
a "Boaters" test prior to participating in the boating program at Nashoba.
This consists of performing a front dive and a surface dive, treading water for two minutes, survival float for one minute and swimming a quarter mile across the cove accompanied by a staff member rowing a boat. All campers and staff are required to wear an approved PFD while on the water at Nashoba.
