Introduction to Crew 1911
Crew 1911, located in Mascoutah, IL, is part of the Venturing program within the Boy Scouts of America and enjoys participating in outdoor and high adventure activities. Crew 1911 holds regular meetings at Mascoutah Sportsmen’s Club.
Overall Crew Goals
Crew 1911 was started with the desire to promote an enjoyment of the outdoors and expose our youth members to the challenges of high adventure activities.
Membership
The Venturing program is open to male and female youth at least 14 years old AND graduated 8th and under 21 years of age.
Adult Leadership
To start, most of the adult leaders of Crew 1911 have been around Scouting for 10 years or more. This gives us both the experience and knowledge to work with the youth members of our crew. Also, the BSA believes that every scout deserves a well trained leader and Crew 1911 couldn't agree more.
Uniform
Crew 1911 is working on development of a crew shirt that all crew members must purchase to wear at crew events. The crew also encourages both youth and adult members to purchase the BSA "official" forest green uniform shirt to wear at district and council events.
Venturing's purpose is to provide positive experiences to help young people mature and to prepare them to become responsible and caring adults.
