Troop 276 has a Venture Crew. Venturing is a youth development program of the Boy Scouts of America
for young men and women who are 13 and have completed the eighth grade,
or age 14 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 between
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, grow, develop
leadership skills, and become good citizens. From www.scouting.org/scoutsource/Venturing/About/venturing.aspx
