Venturing
Crew Advisor Resources (click text for resources)
The Boy Scouts of America relies on volunteers to provide leadership
and support to Cub Scout packs, Boy Scout troops, and Venturing crews.
Scouting volunteers come to Scouting from a variety of
backgrounds and experiences. Plumbers, lawyers, housewives, teachers,
doctors, janitors, and scientists—people from just about every
occupation imaginable—are involved in leading youth to become
responsible, caring, and competent citizens. They also quickly discover
that Scout volunteering enables them to learn new skills and build
lifelong friendships while having fun.
You Benefit, Too.
Whether you wish to volunteer your time with elementary school–age boys
or middle and high school–age youth, the Boy Scouts of America has a
volunteer opportunity that is right for you. In addition to the reward
of working with youth, through volunteering for Scouts you will:
- Develop a greater level of pride in your community.
- Have the opportunity to demonstrate moral and ethical decisions.
- Build a closer bond with your children and other children in the community.
- Become a better role model image for youth in your community.
- Develop a more personal relationship with God.
