Objective:
The Venturer program emphasize shaving fun while encouraging
teens (aged 14 to 17) to feel good about themselves, their friends and family,
God, and the environment. The Venturer program helps teens advance their
leadership skills and gain self-confidence. The Venturer program is built
around a lively variety of activities based on personal and group interests.
Venturing emphasizes outdoor and environmental activities, citizenship and
community service, leadership and personal development, and career
exploration.
To experience the best of the outdoors, to develop a sense of
self-reliance and teamwork, to explore and challenge to do things you
wouldn't normally do. It helps them explore vocational opportunities and
allows them to participate in a variety of social, spiritual and cultural
activities. They challenge themselves by taking part in physical and outdoor
activities. It also helps them get an awareness of the needs of the community
and the environment. These skills will prepare them for the adventurous Rover
program.
