Enjoy mountain
biking, rock-climbing, canoeing, kayaking, extended hikes and lots of
camping. These are just a few of the adventures you'll tackle as a Venturer. You'll enjoy
your outdoor adventures as part of a team, working together with other
young people to accomplish thrilling challenges.Becoming a Venturer
Venturers go places, do things together, learn about their community and help other people. Action, Adventure and fun are emphasized. Venturers learn by ‘doing’ - a fundamental part of the Venturer program covering 6 major areas:
• Exploration
• Personal Fitness
• Personal interest
• Service
• Social/cultural/spiritual and
• Vocational
Scout Leaders
and Venturers form a team. The Leader is a coach giving assistance when
asked and guiding when required. We know we are successful when Venturers
acquire skills and assistance from the Scout Leader becomes less frequent.
Leadership training is the next step. 3rd year Venturers moving into
Rover sections will be ready to help the leadership team at the Beaver
and Cub Level.
What do
you want to do? Maybe you'd like to be a police officer, firefighter,
or paramedic. In Venturers, you can "try on" different exciting
career options to see what's right for you.
Scouting
is a family-based organization. Activities we offer, plus the value
and skills we provide, are aimed at supporting your efforts to teach
your child what is needed to become a well-rounded person. Your personal
involvement is important to help reinforce the lessons your Venturer
learns.
After learning
a bit about Venturers, your Venturer will become ready to become "invested",
or formally welcomed into the Company. You will be invited to attend
the "Investiture Ceremony" to help welcome
your Venturer into the Venturer Company.
