Scouting and Merit Badges

Classes for Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts

Hey, you don't have to be a scout to take these classes!
Everyone is invited to learn about water safety, boating, snorkeling, scuba diving and more!

You can now regsiter for all scout classes online! 

 

All classes will teach the required skills to earn badges or meet requirements.  Please read all information regarding the class and bring the manuals and all required materials and equipment to class.  Scuba and Snorkeling classes are taught by certified Scuba instructors from Inland Scuba.  A participant/parent permission waiver must be signed prior to class.

Note:  These classes aren’t just for scouts!  Anyone can participate and learn about water sports and safety skills.  Please pre-register.  Classes may be combined or cancelled due to lack of registration on the day before the class begins.  Walk-in registration will only be taken if classes are not cancelled or not full.
