As an American, I will do my best to--be clean
in my outdoor manners, be careful with fire, be considerate in the outdoors, and be conservation-minded.
As a Webelos Scout, you'll hike and camp out. As a Boy Scout, You'll be outdoors a lot more often. The Outdoor
Code is a guide all scouts use. Read it with your Webelos den leader and discuss what it means.
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 fire, I will make sure i is cold-out. I will have 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-impac methods of hiking and camping.
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
