Australian Venture
Venturers also have the opportunity to participate in a "Venture", the Venturing equivalent of an Jamboree. Ventures differ from Jamborees in the greater freedom and latitude Venturers experience there, in line with the greater freedoms associated with being in the Venturer section. There are a number of on-site activities, as well as an off site expedition, normally totalling about 12 days long. The most recent Australian Venture was in Tasmania in January 2012.

Famous quotes containing the words australian and/or venture:
“Each Australian is a Ulysses.”
—Christina Stead (1902–1983)
“It is not quite safe to send out a venture in this kind, unless yourself go supercargo. Where a man goes, there he is; but the slightest virtue is immovable,—it is real estate, not personal; who would keep it, must consent to be bought and sold with it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
