You are cordially invited to Cub Scout Leader Specific Training. The purpose of Scouting is to teach values and ethical behavior, using a program of fun and learning that is interesting, exciting, and engaging for our youth members. This is accomplished through the efforts and dedication of thousands of volunteer leaders. They cannot be successful in this vital mission without a thorough knowledge of what they are trying to accomplish and how to go about it. And that knowledge comes through training.
Training
Great Medicine, the National Youth Leadership Training Conference, is a two-weekend (formerly week-long) training for youth leaders developed by the Boy Scouts of America and offered by the Northeastern Pennsylvania Council. The conference is an exciting, action-packed program designed to provide youth with 21st century leadership skills and experiences they can use in their home troops and in other situations demanding leadership of self and others. Scoutmasters are encouraged to provide opportunities within the troop for application and use of the leadership training learned at the conference so that the Scout applies the skills he's learned during the conference. Great Medicine is conducted by a staff of top-level, volunteer Scouts and Scouters selected by the Council Training Committee. Due to course dynamics, full attendance at both weekends is required for completion.
The Northeastern Pennsylvania Council invites you to participate in a weekend of Cub Leader Outdoor Training at Camp Acahela. The weekend will start with BALOO (Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation) which will run Saturday morning (registration is from 8:15 a.m. – 8:45 a.m.) until 6:00 p.m. and then continue with WEBELOS Leader Outdoor Training that starts at 6:30 p.m. Saturday and concludes on Sunday morning at 10:00 a.m.
