What is Venturing?
A fun-filled , co-ed organization run by teens, designed to help develop leadership and teamwork through outdoor adventures. Although co-ed, it’s sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America. The program is an evolution of Exploring, which BSA operated for decades. This Crew is eight years old and draws from Dutch Fork, Irmo High, home schools and Lexington high schools. We are the only active co-ed Venturing unit in the Irmo area. The Crew is sponsored by St. Simon and St. Jude Episcopal Church in Irmo near AmeriSuites Hotel. The Crew has been awarded BSA’s National Quality Unit Award in each of the last five years.
