Note:
The 2014 printing of Venturing Awards and Requirements
(34784 - SKU 618767) omitted the requirements for the Scuba and Shooting Sports
electives. The full requirements are available as a download from BSA by
Clicking here.
Although the requirements in the corrected version include the missing
electives, the introductory requirement mistakenly reads "Complete
requirements 1-8 and any 4 from 9-24" instead of "... 9-26". We have
shown the correct information.
