Join us for our brand new show featuring the Boy Scouts of America on a scuba adventure.
Today we are scouting in Big Munson Island, off the coast of Florida.
The Roving Outdoor Conservation School is an exciting program for Scouts interested in conservation and natural resource management. This hands-on program allows crews to enjoy Philmont's rugged wilderness while partcipating in various activities.
Today we're scouting in New Mexico at Philmont Scout Ranch.
This week the Scouts are on an adventure in the Florida Keys.
This week, we're Scouting on horseback through Philmont Ranch.
The adventure begins! Scouts voyage to the high-adventure camp known as Northern Tier, near Ely, MN. From dog sledding to skiing to cold weather cooking, this trip offers some of the best snow conditions and terrain for winter and wilderness survival camping in North America.
The journey continues from the Northern Tier High Adventure Program in Minnesota. Scouts learn cold weather camping skills while snow shoeing their way to camp. Ice-fishing for food and sleeping in snow caves are only part of what it takes to be prepared to survive the toughest winter wilderness conditions.
Kayaking Georgia's coastal marsh is a stealthy way to explore oceanography. Traveling under their own power, scouts learn to plot their course based on tides as they work their way out to Creighton Island. A night out under the bright stars provides an exciting lesson in astronomy.
Scouting for Adventure changes gears a bit this week as scout skills, leadership and spirit are on display at Camporee. Scouts are judged on up to 11 field events, including Animal Tracking, Fire Building, Scout Jeopardy and the Obstacle Course - all taking place at Castaic Lake in Southern California.
A high-altitude adventure awaits in the mountains of Nevada. Scouts get a first hand look at a working cattle ranch and learn skills like horsemanship, cattle roping and trail riding - culminating with a horseback trek and a night spent high in the mountains and under the stars.
Scouting for Adventure travels to Catalina Island for the first of a Camp Emerald Bay trifecta. This week, Scouts embark on a canoe trip - but not just a paddle around the pond; a 10-mile voyage across the open ocean, learning how to stay safe and work together along the way. A secluded beach with prime snorkeling awaits their arrival, and a campout just feet from the Pacific.
In the second installment from Camp Emerald Bay, Scouts pack-up their sleeping bags, strap-on their helmets and take off on mountain bikes across Catalina Island. Their adventure will take them up lung-burning climbs and down hair-whipping descents, with tips and lessons learned along the way. We'll also see there is a lot more going on in camp with a trip to the shooting range.
This week, we don't go over or around the Pacific - we go IN it! Scouts at Camp Emerald Bay scuba-dive in the dense kelp forests and among abundant marine life that these beautiful waters hold. An extra element is added to this already heart-pounding venture as a night dive is on-tap for the scouts. Emerald Bay is an adventure's oasis, with endless activities and excitement at every turn.
This week, the scouts will be on the New River participating in various activities. Watch as the scouts hit some great heights with some intense zip lining and then they will head to a gun range to learn about and participate in some trap shooting.
This week, scouts travel back in time to 18th century Appalachian, Virginia where a single shot muzzle loader, an axe and a knife were essential to man's survival. Men also crafted tools by hand with fire, steel and sweat.
When the scouts come to the Blue Ridge Scout Reservation in Virginia, they have a myriad of chances to experience high adventure. From getting serious air on a wakeboard to scaling a tree like the lumberjacks did years ago, this is not your father's camp.
On a trip to the Jersey shore you could find yourself paddling Barnegat Bay or walking across a steel cable over thirty feet in the air. Or maybe you could get up on a surfboard for the first time or cling to a rock wall with only your fingers.
As scouting in America reaches the century mark, we'll look back at scouting throughout the last 100 years and see how far we've come.
Two members from troop 730 learn about roping from a professional.
