The outdoors is an essential part of the Venturer program. Weekend events, extended hikes, no trace camping and seasonal sports opportunities round out the Venturer experience. Developing an active, healthy lifestyle is the prime goal. As well, Venturing helps teens learn new knowledge and skills that can lead to a satisfying career. Venturers meet in a group called a company.
Venturers develop and manage their own program with the help of an adult advisor.
Each Venturer learns a promise and motto to help guide their personal development. On my honour I promise to develop myself so that I may better love and serve my God, respect and help my fellowman, honour and render service to my country.
