It prints like a small booklet, so print it double sided!

PATHFINDER DISTRICT SWIM PROGRAM START UPDATE JANUARY 27, 2018 Please read carefully Greetings All: I have attached the Pathfinder Boy Scout swim program flyer for you to distribute. The startup date is Saturday, January 27, 2018. Both watch1 and 2 must register and attend to be swim tested on the 27th.  All participants MUST be registered with the Boy Scouts of America.  THIS PROGRAM IS COED for Boy Scouts, Venturers and Sea Scouts  We cannot accept friends or siblings. This is not a ‘learn to swim’ program. Scouts will develop their swimming technique and endurance for rank advancement. Must be able to pass the BSA swimmers test to earn any merit badges. There is no advance registration. Aquatics Director Noel E. Guzman 718.507.0910 [email protected]
