Leave No Trace

Posted on May 16 2021 - 9:15am

Message:

Leave no trace is one of the most important elemens learned in scouting. As it states in the BSA site, "Leave No Trace is an awareness and an attitude rather than a set of rules. It applies in your backyard or local park as much as in the backcountry. We should all practice Leave No Trace in our thinking and actions--wherever we go". Leave No Trace applies to everyone, not just Scouts and Scouter. Even parents, siblings, friends, and neighbors should learn to practice Leave No Trace, and for that reason I will spend the next 7 weeks covering the seven principles of Leave No Trace.

Plan Ahead and Prepare: Proper trip planning and preparation helps hikers and campers accomplish trip goals safely and enjoyably while minimizing damage to natural and cultural resources. Campers who plan ahead can avoid unexpected situations, and minimize their impact by complying with area regulations such as observing limitations on group size. Schedule your trek to avoid times of high use. Obtain permits or permission to use the area for your trek.

National Youth Leadership Seminar (NYLT)

Posted on May 16 2021 - 9:13am

Message:

June 6-11, 2021 (session 1) & June 13-18, 2021 (session 2)

National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is an exciting, action-packed six-day council-level program designed to provide Scouts in troops, crews and ships with leadership skills and experience they can use in their home units and in other situations demanding leadership of self and others.

Unit leaders have the primary responsibility for training their youth leaders. The first step in the BSA youth leadership training continuum is conducted in the home unit (Introduction to Leadership Skills). Scouts who have completed this training may attend. NYLT is held twice a year in December and June.

NYLT is filled with activities, presentations, challenges, discussions, and camping in a team and model unit environment. Participants learn and practice skills that are valuable at home, church, school, work and the Scouting unit.
