Venturing Code |
As a Venturer, I believe that America 's strength lies in our trust in God and in the courage,
strength, and traditions of our people. I will, therefore, be faithful in my duties and will maintain a
personal sense of honor in my own life.
I will treasure my American heritage and will do all I can to
preserve and enrich it.
I will recognize the dignity and worth of all humanity and will use
fair play and goodwill in my daily life.
I will acquire the Venturing attitude that seeks the truth in all
things and adventure on the frontiers of our changing world.

The Outdoor Code |
As an American, I will do my best to:
BE CLEAN IN MY OUTDOOR MANNERS – I will treat the outdoors as a
heritage. I will take care of myself and others. I will keep my trash
and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods and roadways.
BE CAREFUL WITH FIRE – I will prevent wildfire. I will build my fires
only where they are appropriate. When I have finished using a fire, I
will make sure it is cold-out. I will leave a clean fire ring, or remove
all evidence of my fire.
BE CONSIDERATE IN THE OUTDOORS – I will treat public and private
property with respect. I will use low-impact methods of hiking and
camping.
BE CONSERVATION-MINDED – I will learn how to practice good conservation
of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and energy. I
will urge others to do the same.
