Venturing High Adventure Concept Patch

Venturing 10^th Anniversary
This patch commemorates the 10^th Anniverary of Venturing.  I would like to suggest that it be worn on the right sleeve in place of the 3 inch square patch worn on most Venturing uniforms.  The cost is $2.50 each.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

Comments from others -
I just got the patches and I just wanted to let you know they are great!!!  My crew was really excited to see them and all wanted them sewn on right away.
Thanks,
Jody Hansen

Hi Craig,
The patches arrived today.  Great patches.  Always a pleasure to do business with you!  I will be passing them out at our next committee meeting (as a late Christmas present from me).

The Trained strip looks great on the Venturing uniform.  It is fully embroidered like the VLSC strip.  The cost is $2.00 each.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

The silver eagle on the patch is not borrowed form the Boy Scout Division.  It is representative of the eagle on the Venturing Silver Award is meant to imply leadership.  The cost is $2.50 each.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

The Venturing patch is a replica of the original Ranger award patch.  It can be used as a Crew emblem (in place of the 3" square Venturing patch on the right sleeve), an emblem to signify completion of Powder Horn or the Ranger award.  The cost of this patch is $2.50.  I have also created a jacket patch of the same design; see below.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

The Corps of Discovery is a recognition program for service to Venturing instead of completion of requirements for an award.  Recognition as a member into the Corps is an honor for both youth and adults.  Information about the development of this program can be found here.

The first item used for recognition was a animal tooth that hung on a wire from the right pocket.  Later, a western region Venturing leader asked me to design a pocket flap.  The first flaps were presented to youth who completed a Kodiak training course in 2005 and made a promise to take on a simple service project when he or she got home.  Some of the projects were as complex as helping with Scoutreach camps, Powder Horn, and TLCs, and others were as simple as recruiting some friends to join their Crews.

In addition to recognizing others with the patches below, two certificates have been developed.  You are welcome to use either certificate.  Both certificates are data entry PDF files:

1. Craig Murray's certificate - Use the cursor to select in the area for the name and type the recipients name.  Then tab to two other positions in order to enter the position names of two other people signing the certificate and print.  There are three fields that can be filled in.
2. Bill Wilcox's certificate - Use the cursor to select in the area for the date and type the date.  Then tab to the second field to enter the participant's name.

The Servant Leader (Sacajawea) Corps of Discovery flaps are made in two sizes.  One for male uniforms (patch 4 7/8" wide) and one for female uniforms (patch 4 1/4" wide).  Both are $3.00 each.  I still have some of the male pocket size Lewis & Clark Corps of Discovery flaps and they will be available for sale at $2.50 each until the inventory is gone.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

In addition to the 2" Venturing patch, I have created a 6" Venturing jacket patch; the only current jacket patch in Venturing.  The cost of this limited jacket patch is $9.50 each.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.

Jim Hunter, the Chanonee Venturing Chair from Three Fires Council wanted to build the Venturing program so he and some others developed a plan which included the patches below.  You can read about what he did in the WEAR THE GREEN - JOIN VENTURING article.  Jim has also provided me with a PowerPoint presentation entitled "Venturing - What Is It?" and it is available on "Tips from the Trenches."  Since Jim and I have the same ambition and this is to grow Venturing, I offered to make these fun patches available on my web site.  The cost is $2 for either bordered patch.  Please go to the Ordering page for the order form and postage costs.
