The
purpose of the Guide to Safe Scouting is to prepare adult leaders to
conduct Scouting activities in a safe and prudent manner. The policies and
guidelines have been established because of the real need to protect members
from known hazards that have been identified through eighty-plus years of
experience. Limitations on certain activities should not be viewed as stumbling
blocks; rather, policies and guidelines are best described as stepping-stones
toward safe and enjoyable adventures.
