ngoclinh23 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Son#2 will age out soon as is considering joining a Venturing Crew. I found one (a bit of a drive away) that seems to share the same interests (backpacking, hiking, canoeing) and he knows a guy or two from the OA lodge. So far so good. But he really does not know much about Venturing and the BSA website does not seem to have a good over view that I can share with him. Anyone know of a good FAQ? Son#1 did the ASM thing for awhile but the training requirements were a bit much and it is an awkward transition at best. Son#2 really just wants to squeeze in a little more fun before going away.

ItsBrian Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I actually thought about why there was no information either. It would be nice if they put more information and pushed membership. Maybe that’s why there’s not many members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkMan Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Welcome @ngoclinh23. It's not a FAQ, but I understood Venturing better after skimming the Venturing Handbook. I'm guessing that part of the reason why there isn't more info is because it's a much less structures program. Each Crew does their own thing, their own way. In theory, the variation between Crews is much greater than between troops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
