Scouting Safely
The Guide to Safe Scouting and Age Appropriate Activities

The purpose of the Guide to Safe Scouting is to prepare adult leaders to conduct Scouting activities in a safe and prudent manner. The policies and guidelines have been established because of the real need to protect members from known hazards that have been identified through 100 years of experience. Limitations on certain activities should not be viewed as stumbling blocks; rather, policies and guidelines are best described as stepping-stones toward safe and enjoyable adventures.

All volunteers participating in official Scouting activities should become familiar with the Guide to Safe Scouting.

Leave No Trace Awareness Training

"Leave No Trace is an awareness and an attitude rather than a set of rules. It applies in your backyard or local park as much as in the backcountry. We should all practice Leave No Trace in our thinking and actions--wherever we go".

As part of our commitment as a conservation oriented organization to our environment, the Horseshoe Scout Reservation will continue to offer the three hour Leave No Trace Awareness training on the second Saturday of every month. Registration for our Leave No Trace Awareness training is available online. For more information click here

"The Leave No Trace principles might seem unimportant until you consider the combined effects of millions of outdoor visitors. One poorly located campsite or campfire may have little significance, but thousands of such instances will seriously degrade the outdoor experience for all. Leaving no trace is everyone's responsibility."
