Welcome to the Home Page of the Buckskin Council Venturing District.
Venturing is a youth development program of the Boy Scouts of America
for young men and women who are 14 (and have completed the eighth
grade) through 20 years of age.
Venturing's purpose is to provide positive experiences to help young
people mature and to prepare them to become responsible and caring
adults.
Venturing is based on a unique and dynamic relationship among youth,
adult leaders, and organizations in their communities. Local
community organizations establish a Venturing crew by matching their
people and program resources to the interests of young people in the
community. The result is a program of exciting and meaningful
activities that helps youth pursue their special interests, to grow,
to develop leadership skills, and to become good citizens.
