4 Registration Information, Dates & Fees Refund Policy All refund requests must be on the refund request form: Please understand that these programs require extensive planning.

A check will be mailed to the unit leader not the Scout. Refunds will not be issued due to inclement weather Group Registration Group Registration is the most common method by which units register for programs. Group sizes can vary but traditional have at least 6-8 youth and 2 adults. Any unit sending more than 3 youth must send an adult as well. Units under 12 people may be combined as well. All units will be notified prior. Provisional Registration Provisional registrations and participation is encouraged and accepted in all Sea Base programs. Scouts and Venturers are welcome to participate in the programs without the rest of their units. In the event that an individual registers for any program he and she will be combined with other participants to create a full size crew. Units who are attending Pamlico Sea Base can also sign their younger youth up for any Camp Boddie Summer Camp. The schedules of both camps are the same; arrival and departure times, so that you may arrive together. Camp Boddie and the Pamlico Sea Base are also located on the same property. Units registering more than two youth must provide at least one adult.

5 Crew Sizes For the sake of registration a Crew is defined as your group. Not to be confused with a Venturing Crew. The maximum crew size varies for each individual program. The maximum number will be strictly enforced. Please do not ask for or expect exceptions. Each crew is required to have a majority of youth participants. Crew Sizes The following maximums per week are not flexible. Please do not ask to bring more than the maximum for each program. Crew sizes are based on equipment available and safety. For example the Sea Base has 12 bikes available for the Biking Trek. Total Crew numbers include youth and adult leaders. Sea Kayaking Trek: Maximum of 40 per week / Minimum of 4. (Recommended individual crew size 12) The Pamlico Sea Base maintains about 50 sea kayaks. Coastal Biking Trek Maximum of 12/Minimum of 6 Inner Banks Adventure: Maximum of 10 per crew (Two crews per week). Sailing Trek: TBA Crew Leader A well qualified Scout or Venturer should be selected as crew leader before arriving at camp. The crew leader responsibilities include: Discussing ideas with the entire crew to arrive at a consensus before taking action Organizing the crew, assigning duties and making decisions Lead the crew in organizing and selecting the route (for kayaking and Coastal Cycling) Oversee the setting up and breaking down camp and meal preparation Communicate between Sea Base staff and the crew. Adult leadership is not required for Sea Base programs. In the event that only one, or no adult leader accompanies your unit to camp we will provide additional Sea Base personnel to meet the requirements set forth in BSA Youth Protection Guidelines. Any unit sending more than 3 scouts must send an adult too. Adult leaders are required to meet the same participant requirements as a youth member. Your Role As An Adult Leader As an adult leader, you will work with the advice of your guide to counsel your crew and crew leader and ensure the safety and well being of the group. Your assigned staff guide will have the final word on all matters while on a trek. If it becomes necessary, you should be prepared to discipline a crew member. Please remember that part of the high adventure experience is utilizing challenging situations to help your crew bond into an efficient team that helps all crew members succeed. All of our programs will involve some degree of physical challenge for participants not accustomed to the type of exercise. Most teenage participants are fully capable of mastering this physical challenge while adults with sedentary lifestyles often have more difficulty. Please consider your ability to maintain a positive attitude in light of physical hardship when making plans to accompany a group. This is also important to keep this in mind when selecting additional adults to participate in a trek who may not normally participate in unit activities. A crew with an enthusiastic spirit can do far more than it ever dreamed possible and you are an instrumental part of keeping your group s morale high.

6 General Information Age All participants must be a registered Scout, 13 years of age by January 31st, There are no exceptions to this. Those wishing to operate jet skis must be age 14 by arrival. Conduct Policy The majority of the property and facilities used by the Pamlico Sea Base are either privately owned or operated by the National Park Service. For this reason we expect every participant who attends the Sea Base to act in accordance with Scouting values and principles. Your help in this will ensure that we maintain good relationships with these individuals and organizations, and continue to promote the reputation of the Boy Scouts of America as a highly regarded youth organization. Those individuals that do not do so will be asked to leave the Base Camp or be removed from the route they are on at the time at their own expense. The Sea Base cannot provide supervision should a participant be removed from the trek for discipline reasons, they must be sent home at their own expense. An adult leader or an additional youth will be required to come off the trail to provide supervision and assist with transportation arrangements in the event a participant is sent home. Restitution for damages caused on or off camp property will be billed to the Scout s parents or the Unit.

9 Inner Banks Adventure Take full advantage of every aquatic activity the North Carolina Inner Banks has to offer. Your week will be filled with: Small Boat Sailing Ocean and Surf Kayaking Waterskiing Jet Skis Shark Fishing Ocracoke Overnights The best way to describe IBX Adventure is spending a week at camp, making your own schedule, and participating in everything Aquatics related in a week. A perfect program for the older Scout who is looking to spend a summer outside of merit badge sessions or for the group looking for a less strenuous high adventure program. Visit unique locations like Fort Macon in Atlantic Beach, NC and the NC Maritime Museum in historic Beaufort NC. Other optional activities may include: Deep Sea Fishing and Shark Fishing. Your time in IBX Adventure will be split between activities at the base camp on the Pamlico River and facilities near the Atlantic Ocean. The crew size of the program is limited to ensure that each participant receives personal instruction in all the activities. This is a fast paced week full of programs and fun. However, true to Sea Base fashion, we ve left plenty of free time for relaxing and the flexibility to try new things as they come your way. Eye patches and talking parrots are optional.

The guide will contain equipment list, routes and general information for each participant to review. This guide has been updated for 2019, so please review it accordingly. Routes: Our main route is designed to accommodate everyone possible, while still earning the 50miler award and the National Park Service and BSA Resource Ranger Award. Variances to the main route are available for shorter or longer options.

Locations: Treks take place along the Cape Lookout National Seashore. Actual paddling is in the protected waters of Back, Core and Pamlico Sounds. Camping is generally on the ocean side of the islands except at the lighthouse. The average water depth of the sounds is only 1-3 feet. Participants are rarely in deep water except when crossing a channel or near an inlet. For the Parents Sea kayaking is a very safe activity to participate in. We take all the required precautions outlined in the Guide to Safe Scouting along with the National Camping Standards for High Adventure Bases. We also add our good judgment and years of experience to keep the participants safe at all times. While we are somewhat isolated during the kayaking trek we do have protocols in place to call on emergency services that can respond in a rapid fashion. The Pamlico Sea Base is the largest BSA operated sea kayaking program with a fleet of 50+ sea kayaks with gear. Weather Weather plays a huge deciding role in the execution of our treks. Sometimes storms will delay a trek s start or completion. Our staff will work hard to make sure your unit receives the most of their experience as safely as possible. However, we cannot control the weather and are not responsible for weather related delays or closings.

13 Coastal Cycling Trek Cycling is what makes the week different from all of the other activities. This route is a good way for crews to break up their week and not just commit to 5 days of kayaking.

Classroom instruction is balanced with daily swimming pool practice sessions. Towards the end of the course, divers have a chance to test their skills at a local rock quarry and a shore-based beach dive. The highlight of the week is an open ocean dive during which participants are evaluated for their NAUI certification. All participants in the program will have the opportunity to earn their NAUI certification. This certification is recognized world-wide and will allow participants to rent gear and continue their underwater exploration in virtually any diving arena.
