Ahoy! We are introducing a new Sea Scouts program at Emerald Bay where ship(s) can sail out to camp and attend a four day-three night adventure during our summer season. Scouts will be traveling to Camp Emerald Bay on Sunday and leaving on Wednesday. We charter a client boat for those who need transportation over but offer discounts for those ships that can sail in on their own vessels. All local west-coast Sea Scout ships are welcome to participate but must attend with their registered Ship or sign up with a guardian. Participants can expect to do their camp swim test and get ready for fun in the sun while participating in specialized programs just for them.
Participants will have an opportunity to shoot archery and shotgun, as well as take part in waterfront activities at one of the nation's finest summer camp locations. We also include bike riding along the Catalina coast and also host a sailing regatta competition between the ships on our RS Quests!
Depending on which accommodations your ship signs up for, you will have the opportunity to camp in our campsites, sleeping in traditional platform-canvas tents, while enjoying the gentle ocean breeze every night. This is a perfect event for Sea Scout Ship looking for some fun time ashore during a sailing adventure around Catalina Island. We also offer a week-long program for those Sea Scouts looking to sign-up for some of our certification courses (NRA rifle marksman qualification, American Red Cross Lifeguard, PADI SCUBA, and American Sailing Association certifications). For those looking to save on trip expenses, we also offer discounts for those ships who can host a sunset sail, help with a 2-hour service project, or arrange a vessel tour of their boat.
Costs are added "a la carte" in the system. You will be charged the base price, as if you were staying Sunday to Wednesday, and are sleeping in your own boat. If you plan to stay all week and travel with our scout boat, you will need to add on those options so you are charged correctly. Please reach out to jared.dean@scouting.org or jeff.lee@scouting.org for more information.
