Venturing Recognition
The new Venturing awards program is available to all Venturing youth members. It is designed to enhance personal development; encourage members to learn, grow and serve; and to recognize the high level of achievement for those who acquire Venturing skills.
Bronze, Gold and Silver Awards programs are progressive in skill development and Venture recognition. The Silver Award is the highest award a Venturer can earn. It represents substantial growth and experience as the Venturer earned the Bronze and Gold awards. This award says a Venturer is a leader, serves others, is personally fit, is prepared for emergencies and has honor.
The Venturing Awards are listed on National's Venturing Awards Page. (Opens in a new window.)
