Remnder: All scouts attending summer camp at Tesomas and adults attending Tesomas who intend to boat or swim should plan to take the Boy Scout swim test. The swim test is required every year, not just for new scouts. Everyone who intends to swim or boat must take the test. (The Swim Test is part of the Merit Badge Class, so you do not need to attend both.)

The swim test will be offered for Troop 24 members at the Pav YMCA (in Berwyn) on the following dates:

Monday, June 24th at 5:30 pm – sign up HERE
Monday, July 8th at 5:30 pm – sign up HERE

Scouts will need to bring swim trunks, swim goggles (recommended) and a towel. Scouts will also need a waiver signed by their parent. There is no fee for the Swim Test and you will not need to purchase a YMCA guest pass.

You also have the option of testing with another certified lifeguard. These forms plus a copy of the lifeguard’s certication should be given to Mrs. Staubus at least a week before camp. Scan and email to carrie@staubus.net.

If you do not attend one of these test dates, you will be asked to take the test upon arrival at Camp Tesomas or you will be designated a non-swimmer.
