BSA SCOUT INFORMATION:

Hey BSA Scouts ages 13-17, have you ever wanted to learn to Scuba Dive and earn a Scuba Merit Badge while you are at it? Are you headed to Sea Base and want to be certified by the time you get there? Are you interested in earning a passport to the final frontier? Now is your chance. Family Dive Club is offering two Sessions of Open Water Scuba Camp in June 2025. 


Each camp provides you an opportunity to satisfy all the requirements to earn a PADI Open Water Scuba Certification, Scuba Merit Badge and Scuba Reward. Camp is not for everybody. It requires a strong desire to learn to scuba dive, a mature disposition, strong swimming skills, a willingness to work hard, and a positive attitude. 


If this sounds like you, then we invite you to sign up for an adventure of a lifetime. If the camp fee is too much for your family, we invite you to apply for a scholarship. The scholarship application window for 2025 is now closed. Please check back in the fall for summer 2026 scholarship information. 


If you are not quite old enough for Teen Scuba Camp, then check out our Ocean Adventure Camp for kids ages 8-11. It’s a blast. We hope to see you and your friends next summer.
