All adults must be registered with BSA to camp. This camp is on the military base. Each adult must also be background checked by Camp Pendleton. Due to the second background check we will need to know who is attending ASAP!
Each scout MUST pass the BSA swim test to participate in water activities. If scouts are unable, they can take part in all other activities and stay no more then knee high in the water. If you have completed this at camp this year you are OK. If you have not, we will schedule a time to meet at Adam's Park Pool. This will be an early morning session.
To pass the swim test you must Jump feet first into water over the head in depth. Level off and swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: sidestroke, breaststroke, trudgen, or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting backstroke. The 100 yards must be completed in one swim without stops and must include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating. PLEASE practice this distance. It is 4 laps in the pool and many scouts need practice to build up this endurance.
Must be completed annually to participate in swim activities. If completed at summer camp, you are good for the year.
All others: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth. Level off and swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: sidestroke, breaststroke, trudgen, or crawl; then swim 25 yards using an easy resting backstroke. The 100 yards must be completed in one swim without stops and must include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating.
