Wood Badge  W6-49-17

You are cordially invited to continue your leadership training and dedication to Scouting's Aims and Methods by enrolling in the Wood Badge Course in Spring 2017!

Course W6-49-17 will be held May 18-20, and June 1-3, 2017 at Mataguay Scout Ranch.  Both weekends are mandatory for completion of the course.  Scout leaders must have a current BSA registration, have completed basic scout leader training (and in some cases outdoor training) to qualify for the course.

The highest levels of leadership training are featured in this course, as well as a global view of scouting.  Participants and staff from all levels of Scouting will join together for 6 days of concentrated study, goal setting and FUN!!  Participants will live and train in the out-of-doors as they build friendships and associations that will last a lifetime.  The principles of leadership will be taught to help each scout leader increase their ability to meet the needs of their units and inspire their youth to learn and achieve at an even greater level.

The course fee covers the cost for food, presentation materials, Wood Badge participant ball cap and 1 activity t-shirt (additional shirts are available on a pre-order basis for $15 each (3XL-$18, 4XL-$20)).
