Swimming Otter in 24 Meetings

It may seem like a lot, but it is totally doable to meet all the requirements for the swimming otter badge over the course of 2 years/24 monthly meetings. These are broken out by badge on the badge requirements page, but here is the full list. There is only one campout called out below, but you will need to camp for 5 nights altogether to earn the camping badge. Any of these meetings can be done as a campout, so you can slot those in wherever it makes sense.
