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 a fire, I will make sure it is cold
out.
I will leave 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-impact methods of hiking and camping.
and
- 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.
