Expected Standards for Behaviors

General Guidelines:

Behavior shall be modeled on the Twelve Points of the Scout Law:

A Scout is:    

Trustworthy Obedient  
Loyal Cheerful  
Helpful Thrifty  
Friendly Brave  
Clean Courteous  
Kind Reverent  

The Crew Advisor, Assistant Crew Advisor or other Adult Leader in charge shall decide if behavior is satisfactory and will take appropriate action to see that these guidelines are enforced.  This might include the denial of certain privileges or exclusion from participation in future Crew activities.

Specific Rules:

Serious incidents may require appropriate disciplinary action including:

The Adult Leaders would prefer that we not have to spell these consequences out; however, past experiences have demonstrated that it is best to make sure every Crew Member knows what behavior is expected beforehand.


Transportation outside Austin city limits

When an activity calls for transportation outside of Austin city limits (sometimes within the city limits), special rules apply.

All activities will be adult-supervised, and Crew members are not permitted to deviate from the Crew's planned activities.  Adult "ramrods" are assigned to each activity.  In addition, Crew Members ARE ONLY PERMITTED TO TRANSPORT THEMSELVES AND OTHERS TO THE CHURCH AND HOME.  Only Adults may provide transportation to Venture Crew One members.  In addition the Scout office must be informed and a Tour Permit must be submitted.  For trips exceeding 500 miles a National Office Tour Permit must be obtained.


BSA National Standards

Venture Crew One is chartered by Boy Scouts of America and its Venturing Program.  The requirements of the national office are incorporated into our program.
