Seven Mountains Pre-Camp Swim Test
The swim classification of individuals participating in Scouting aquatics activities at Seven
Mountains Scout Camp is a key element in both Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat.
Pre-camp Swim Tests may be administered by a BSA Aquatics Instructor, BSA Cub
Aquatics Supervisor, BSA Lifeguard, or a recognized instructor or lifeguard from a YMCA or
Red Cross program. In order for the test to be valid, the person administering the test
must submit a copy of their credentials (i.e. Life Guard Certification) with this form.
There are three swim classifications: Non-swimmer, Beginner, and Swimmer. Please,
indicate below the classification of each adult or Scout.
