What is Venturing Video
You love exploring your
passions, making new friends, and discovering the world. You're
always looking for an adventure. Rappelling a cliff. Perfecting your shot.
Designing a robot. Kayaking into the sunset. Exploring your faith. Volunteering
at an animal shelter. The choice is yours! Each activity provides an
opportunity to shine and learn more about yourself and the world around you.
Venturing is youth-led and youth-inspired. You'll acquire life skills and gain
experiences that will prove to be valuable regardless of where your future
takes you, all while having a blast: leadership, event-planning, organization,
communication, responsibility – the list goes on!
A Venturing Crew is a fun-filled ,
co-ed organization run, organized and executed by teens, for teens, designed to
help develop leadership and teamwork through outdoor adventures and unique
outings and activities. Although co-ed, it's a separate and senior division of
the Boy Scouts of America.
The ALPS Model
Getting
the most from your adventure is not always easy. To help you succeed,
Venturing uses four areas of emphasis to help the crew plan and carry
out its program. Venturing's areas of emphasis are the four pillars
around which the crew will construct a fun and rewarding program.
