National
Youth Leadership Training. This one-week course teaches our youth leaders the leadership skills that they need!
It is level two of
the three-part youth leadership training continuum. It is a follow-on
to the more basic "Troop Leadership Training" that the troop does at Kirk Park
each Winter.
Follows are the "nearby" courses in Summer 2012. Our council offers this course in
August, however, you don't have to go to our council's version if another
council's works better for you. The least expensive (and closest) one is at Camp Owasippe in
June (the three closest and three least expensive are highlighted below in bold). Distances are from Holland. The courses have
a minimum age of 13, a minimum rank of First Class, and a requirement that
your Scoutmaster endorse your application. Note that most of these
courses don't fill up -- so if the application deadline has past, you
probably can still get in late:
