On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind,
obedient, cheerful, thirty, brave, clean, and reverent.
Lead the Adventure
“Venturers aspire to lead the adventure of a life guided by the Scout Oath and Scout Law.”
As an American, I will do my best to
Be clean in my outdoor manners,
Be careful with fire,
Be considerate in the outdoors, and
Be conservation-minded.
