Small Boat Sailing Merit Badge Camp 2026
About this Event
Sea Scout Ship 280 is proud to host our 8th annual Small Boat Sailing Merit Badge Camp.
Scouts must have already passed the Scouting American (SA) swimmer test to participate. Scouts must provide a note from their Scoutmaster or summer camp indicating that they successfully completed the SA ‘Swimmer’ test since 4/1/2026. Contact us if you need the swim test.
You must attend the entire camp. You cannot leave for Football, Soccer or any other reason. Please do not sign up unless you can attend the entire camp.
