Join Frontier District for some chilly fun at our Klondike Derby. Never been to a Klondike Derby before? It’s an outdoor event where patrols of Scouts BSA scouts can put their winter camping and scout skills to the test in a friendly competitive environment. We encourage Troops to invite their pack’s Webelos to join them.
National Youth Leadership Training (Weekend 2)
National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is the premier youth leadership program offered by Hawk Mountain Council. NYLT is an exciting, action-packed program designed to provide youth members with leadership skills and experience they can use in their home troops and crews, and in other situations demanding leadership of self and others.
The NYLT course centers around the concepts of what a leader must BE, what a leader must KNOW, and what a leader must DO. The key elements are then taught with a clear focus on HOW TO. The skills come alive during the week as the patrol goes on a Quest for the Meaning of Leadership.
NYLT is a six-day course. Content is delivered in a troop and patrol outdoor setting with an emphasis on immediate application of learning in a fun environment. Interconnecting concepts and work processes are introduced early, built upon, and aided by the use of memory aids, which allows participants to understand and employ the leadership skills much faster.
Course Specifics
Hawk Mountain Council’s NYLT course will be held this August over two weekends at Hawk Mountain Scout Reservation.
Weekend 1 – Saturday, August 14 through Monday, August 16
Weekend 2 – Friday, August 20 through Sunday, August 22
The fee for the course will be $295.00 and includes all lodging, meals, and course materials. $100.00 is due at the time of registration.
