INTRODUCTION The 2003 Cascade Pacific Council Powder Horn was a two-weekend course on high adventure resources. It was not a personal development course like Wood Badge, or even a skills course. It let us experience many high adventure activities; learn where to get the resources to support high adventure programs; and learn how to offer those programs in an exciting, out-of-the-box way. The powder horn was long used by outdoorsmen as one of the necessary tools for daily life. The powder horn carried the propellant that allowed him to sustain daily life. The powder horn ranged from the very plain, yet functional, to the ornate work of art, but the use was the same, a vessel to help sustain. The recipient of the Venturing Powder Horn is a vessel- a vessel to help sustain the spirit of the outdoorsman in our youth of today. The propellant that we carry is the knowledge to share with youth. PURPOSE The Powder Horn course is designed to introduce and expose adult Scout leaders to the activities and resources necessary to operate a successful outdoor/high adventure unit-level program. It is based on the eight core and eighteen electives found in the Venturing Ranger program. It is intended to help adult leaders find and use resources in a way they can lead their unit-level high adventure programs. No high adventure skills are taught in this course. It is designed to have some disciplines introduced with numerous hands-on segments. Participants do not learn how to climb rocks or shoot skeet; but learn where to go to find those who can teach these skills to Venturers and Boy Scouts. The most valuable resource is the Consultant, a person whose expertise will teach skills, as well as, guide and enhance high-adventure experiences. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS Registered BSA Leader 21 years old, except 18 for Assistant Scoutmasters Class 3 Medical RSTC/PADI Medical if scuba activity
