Over a period of two years, (while still participating in high adventure activities),
crew members will complete about a dozen dives and academic classroom modules
to obtain PADI certifications for Open Water, Advanced Open Water, and Rescue Diving.

Once a scout has PADI Open Water SCUBA certification,
he can start diving with the DiveHeart Foundation
to become a Handicapped Scuba Association (HSA) Certified Dive Buddy.
This HSA certification enables them to assist disabled divers
on dives they make at sites located throughout North American and the Caribbean.

If you are at least 15 years old and finished with your first year of high school,
feel free to contact Crew 2501 for applications, schedules or further details.
Scuba classes start in early November and are limited to 8 adults/scouts per class.
