Oceanography Merit Badge Days
Educational Program for Local Scouting Youth
This special program is offered by the Maritime Museum Education Department Saturdays, June 15, July 27, and August 10, 2024. We invite Scouts BSA youth to enroll and earn their Oceanography Merit Badge through attendance at one of three classes held on three Saturdays at the Maritime Museum of San Diego. Classes will run 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Scouts must complete one class to earn their Oceanography Merit Badge.
The program gives local scouting youth the opportunity to more deeply explore the ocean that is so integral to the San Diego community. By combining field work, laboratory observation, and scholarly discussion, Oceanography Merit Badge Days at the Maritime Museum of San Diego allow scouts to become fully immersed in the multiple branches of oceanographic research.
Participating scouts must be accompanied by an adult. Registration includes general admission to explore the Maritime Museum of San Diego after class. Each scout or group of scouts are required to be accompanied by a parent or adult chaperone. All Scouts BSA Youth Protection guidelines must be followed at any event with registered Scouts present. Reservations must be done online in advance at. Space is limited and enrollment is based on a first come, first served basis.
Requirements:
Contact your troop leader about procuring your Oceanography Merit Badge, before your class date, and bring your Blue Card, signed by your troop leader.
Each scout or group of scouts, needs at least one adult leader in attendance.
