Scuba as a Possible Elective for Personal Interest Award in Venturers
Scuba is another potential elective available to Venturer Scouts who are in pursuit of their Personal Interest Award. There are three steps to successfully complete this segment of the training.
- The Venturer Scout must become certified as a PADI Open Water Diver (or obtain an equal certification from an accredited agency.)
- Make a presentation to their group, another group or a Cub Scout or Scout group on what it takes to become certified and some other subject related to Scuba Diving.
- Assist with a Scouts Canada Scuba program as teaching others is a key characteristic of Venturing.
Many PADI Dive Centres already support Venturing crews. Contact your local PADI Dive Centre or Resort today to see how your crew can benefit from this partnership.
