Corps 5 of the Mahican District is pleased to offer Pre-Camp BSA Swim Tests for Scouts BSA, Crews and those Scouts BSA that are registered to attend this year’s Jamboree. All tests are by “Advance Registration” through the Black Pug Registration System and except for Jamboree Participants, will only be conducted on a Unit Basis.  Testing dates are on Wednesday, May 10, 17 and 24, 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm, and all sessions are at Annapolis High School.  NO WALK INS OR TELEPHONE RESERVATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED.

Scouts attending this year’s Jamboree may register and complete the testing process without a Unit.  If coming without a unit or Leader, the Scout must have a parent or responsible adult present.  To verify the Scout is attending Jamboree, the Scout will be asked to provide their Michigan Crossroads Council Unit Number which will start with either a “B” or “G”.

All tests on the Test Date will be conducted on a “First Come-First Serve” basis and only those Units or Individuals who registered for that particular day.  Please note that it takes approximately 5 minutes per Scout to administer the test and we will be trying to test 4 Scouts every 5 minutes.  WE WILL NOT CONTINUE TESTS UNTIL ALL WHO ARE PRESENT ARE TESTED.  The registration system is designed to allow for the testing of 64 individuals over the span of 1½ hours.  Please plan to arrive early to ensure your Unit or you will be able to be tested; otherwise you may not be tested and will have to re-register. (There is no carry-over of those Units or individuals who cannot be tested during a session)  Please also plan on waiting at the site until it is your Unit’s or your turn to be tested.

Please review the Instructions File before you make your reservations, it explains the reservation process the time to allow for tests.
