» April Vaca: Super-Trip!

The Jan. 27th Crew meeting will be the time to determine what trip will happen during April Vacation. Bring your suggestions and get ready to coordinate a great Superactivity!

» Crew Summer Camp?

We've heard of summer camp, but, what about a week of Venturing Camp? That's right... spend a week (or a half-week) of your summer with Crew 160! Or, if enough people do not sign-up to go, there are still a few 'provisional' opportunities where you can join with Venturers from other Crews, as well. What a great chance to work toward Outdoor Bronze, Ranger and other awards! Main camp, back-country, hiking, boating, shooting sports, climbing, riding, Venturing... whatever you may dream! For more information, contact Mark. Approximate cost would be $340. $50 deposit due by March 15th.

» Crew Registration

» Yankee Candles® ?????

Did you order Yankee Candles® in the spring but have not received your product? Please contact our Advisor for more information. (see the Contacts tab of this website).

» Crew Shirts

At the request of several Venturers & Parents last spring, Crew 160 has enhanced its logo and, to celebrate, new wicking t-shirts are now available for order/purchase! Since wicking shirts cost a little more, the Crew will pay for part of the price, and your cost is only $10/shirt. Talk to an Advisor for more information or to order yours today!

» Venturer Handbook?

The best way to track your Trail to the Silver Award is with a Venturer Handbook. Do you have one yet?

As a Venturer, I believe that America's strength lies in our trust in God and in the courage, strength, and traditions of our people.

I will, therefore, be faithful in my religious duties and will maintain a personal sense of honor in my own life.
I will treasure my American heritage and will do all I can to preserve and enrich it.
I will recognize the dignity and worth of all humanity and will use fair play and goodwill in my daily life.
I will acquire the Venturing attitude that seeks truth in all things and adventure on the frontiers of our changing world.
