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 out of lakes, streams, fields, woods and roadways.
Be careful with fire
I will prevent wildfire. I will build my fires only when and where they are appropriate.
When I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is 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 follow the principals of Leave No Tract for all outdoor activities.
Be conservation-minded
I will learn about and practice good conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife and energy. I will urge others to do the same.
