What is the Ojibwa Swim Program?
The Ojibwa Swim Program is a chance for your scouts to earn the Swimming or Lifesaving Merit Badges. The Ojibwa District Activities Committee will host the event at the Henry Ford II pool on March 12, 19, & 26. Merit Badge counselors will be at the pool to pass scout on the Merit Badge Requirements

How do I register my scout?
All registrations are handled by your Troop, we do not accept individual registrations and all participants must be preregistered.

Troop leaders can register their scouts by either filling out the attached paper registration form or by going to http://ojibwacamporee.org/swim.htm and clicking on the registration link to use the council’s online Doubleknot registration system.

Important information about registration:
