Again this year, CAPT Steve will be offering SCUBA, BSA with an Open Water Experience at Camp Sequassen!
SCUBA BSA introduces qualified Boy Scout, Venturing, and registered adult participants to the special skills, equipment, and safety precautions associated with SCUBA diving, and provides a foundation for those who later will participate in more advanced underwater activity. The SCUBA, BSA experience contains two parts: Knowledge Development and Water Skills Development. During the first part, participants learn basic dive safety information and overview skills to be used during their water experience. The Water Skills Development session introduces essential dive skills, such as mask clearing, regulator clearing, and alternate air source use. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to move ahead with a supervised open water introductory experience. Because of the open water component, minimum age for this program is fourteen, and participants must be blue level swimmers.
