Leadership Training
NATIONAL YOUTH LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Sunday, August 2, 2009 to

The Occoneechee North Star
National Youth Leadership Training is now taking applications for attendance.
This is a
six-day outdoor experience for current and future leaders in support of the
Scoutmaster’s responsibility for the training of his youth leaders. The conference utilizes
the standard
Troop structure using the patrol method. Patrol leadership changes daily to
give each Scout a chance to be a Patrol Leader or Assistant. Each participant will write
his own
vision statement in which he will plan how to use his newly acquired skills in
his home Troop. The conference has been developed by the National Council B.S.A. It is the highest leadership
training offered to youth leaders at the Council level.
WHO MAY ATTEND?
A participant may be any
current or future leader in any Scouting position. Also to be eligible attend, he must be
at least
First Class in rank and thirteen years old by the start of the course. Each
Scout must also have a working knowledge of camping, hiking and cooking over an open fire in all weather conditions
and have the written approval of his Scoutmaster. Enrollment is limited to 48
qualified participants.
WHAT IS THE COST OF THIS
COURSE?
The total cost for NYLT is
$210, which covers course materials, T-Shirt, hat and food for the week. A fee of
$75 is
required with the application form and the remaining $135 is due no later than
July 21st.
