All Scouts and Adults attending any of these: May Campout, BRCT, Summer Camp, and Sea Base, must take and pass the swim test in order to fully participate in these activities. We have the pool from 5:30 to 7:00PM, so please arrive at 5:20 and we will start with whoever arrives first, by oldest scouts. You can leave after you complete your test.

Wear your swimsuit, bring a towel and an extra shirt to change into.
Scouts must achieve SWIMMER status for BRCT, Summer Camp (for rafting) and Seabase.
We will have a licensed coach conduct the following tests:
For SWIMMER Status: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, and begin swimming. Swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: side stroke, breaststroke, trudgen, or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting back stroke. The 100 yards must be swum continuously and include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating.
For BEGINNER Status: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, swim 25 feet on the surface, stop, turn sharply, resume swimming as before, and return to starting place.
