Established in 1954, Aquatic School is the Longhorn Council’s oldest week-long leadership program for Scouts ages 13-17.  This unique, challenging, and rewarding course has been the training ground for over six decades of Longhorn Council instructors & leaders.   Scouts learn the Four Goals of Aquatic School while participating in Swimming, Lifesaving, Rowing, and Canoeing merit badges.  The Four Goals are: 1) Leadership Development, 2) Skill Proficiency, 3) Instructor Training, and 4) Time Management.  Scouts not only learn these merit badges, but learn how to teach these merit badges!
