The Venturing program has a long history within the BSA. The program got its start in the 1930s as the Senior Scout Division for boys 15 and older. The Senior Scout programs included the Sea Scouts, Air Scouts, Explorer Scouts, Rover Scouts, and a few others. Explorer Scouts focused on advanced camping and worked on advancement leading to the Ranger Award.
Store uncut watermelons at room temperature. Store uncut watermelon at 55Â°F to 70Â°F (13Â°C to 21Â°C). Whole melons will keep for two weeks at 60Â°F (16Â°C), 7 to 10 days at average room temperature and up to a week in hot weather. Store it too long, and it will lose flavor and texture. Chill the watermelon before cutting.
Store the melon in a cool, dry area for an additional three weeks. Donât chill the watermelon as this will damage the seeds. Once the watermelon has cured, itâs time to remove the seeds. Cut open the melon and scoop the seeds out, flesh and all. Pour the âgutsâ into a large bowl and fill it with water. Healthy seed sinks to the bottom and dead (not viable) will float along with the majority of the pulp. Remove the âfloatersâ and pulp.
