Venture Crew is a youth development program, from the Boy Scouts of America, for men/women who are 14 - 20 years of age. (You are able to join at a younger age - example: 13 - if you have finished 8th grade). Trained adult leaders supervise all of the Venture Crew's activities, their first priority: safety.
Venture Crew members join in fun outdoor/indoor activities, learn valuable leadership skills, and can earn great awards for their efforts in Venturing.
Venture Crew/Venturing is a high adventure scouting program that offers many opportunities in leadership, service, fitness, citizenship, outdoors, indoor, and social activities. Our program supports the philosophy and values of our Chartering Organization.
We have an open enrollment policy. Come visit us and join hour crew in our adventures.
High adventures we have done are flying an airplane, sailing the shores on San Diego, went to VentruingFest and 2017 Jamboree in Summit Bechtel in West Virginia, wend to Pimaree in Mexico/Camp Lawton, Backpacking the AZ Trail, staying at a haunted Hotel, ATV riding, and performed many community service projects.
LOVE D&D? We do this weekly!

Methods
The aims of the Boy Scouts of America are to build character, develop citizenship, and foster personal fitness. The Venturing methods listed below have been carefully designed to achieve the aims of the Boy Scouts of America and meet the needs of young adults.
Leadership. All Venturers are given opportunities to learn and apply proven leadership skills. A Venturing crew is led by elected crew officers. The Venturing Leadership Skills Course is designed for all Venturers and helps teach them in an active way to lead effectively.
Group Activities. Venturing activities are interdependent group experiences in which success is dependent on the cooperation of all. Learning by "doing" in a group setting provides opportunities for developing new skills.
Adult Association. The youth officers lead the crew. The officers and activity chairs work closely with adult Advisors and other adult leaders in a spirit of partnership. The adults serve in a "shadow" leader capacity.
Recognition. Recognition comes through the Venturing advancement program and through the acknowledgement of a youth's competence and ability by peers and adults.
The Ideals. Venturers are expected to know and live by the Venturing Oath and Code. They promise to be faithful in religious duties, treasure their American heritage, help others, and seek truth and fairness.
High Adventure. Venturing's emphasis on high adventure helps provide team-building opportunities, new meaningful experiences, practical leadership application, and lifelong memories to young adults.
Teaching Others. All of the Venturing awards require Venturers to teach what they have learned to others. When they teach others often, Venturers are better able to retain the skill or knowledge taught, they gain confidence in their ability to speak and relate to others, and they acquire skills that can benefit them for the rest of their lives as a hobby or occupation.
