Outdoor Code
I agree to join with the Boy
Scouts of America in protecting my country's natural beauty and conserving
her natural resources.
The Outdoor Code
As an American, I will do my best to -
-
Be clean in my outdoor
manners.
I will treat the outdoors as a heritage.
I will take care of it for myself and others
I will keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods,
and roadways.
-
Be
careful with fire.
I will prevent wildfire.
I will build my fires only where they are appropriate.
When I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold out.
I will leave a clean fire ring, or remove all evidence of my fire.
-
Be considerate in the
outdoors.
I will treat public and private property with respect.
I will use low-impact methods of hiking and camping.
and
-
Be conservation minded
I will learn how to practice good conservation of soil, waters,
forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and energy.
I will urge others to do the same.
