Aquatics Day is a fun-filled event for Scouts in troops, crews, and ships. Participants can participate in two activities, including five aquatics-related merit badge classes and 14 additional merit badge classes—some of which are rarely offered.  In addition to merit badge sessions, there will be opportunities to try climbing, snorkeling, and paddleboarding. Sea Scouts and Venturers can also work on rank advancement during the event. The day will conclude with a Sea Scout and Venturing Fair, a Glow Splash Party, and an Ice Cream Social. Individual Scouts can participate on Saturday.  Troops, crews, and ships can camp for the weekend.
