What is the University of Scouting?

This training program is unlike any other training available to unit leaders. Experienced leaders and trainers will be presenting a variety of topics that are designed to give those attending both more detailed information on how Scouting works, and true to life examples of how to make the program presented to scouts special. The University of Scouting training program follows a design similar to a real university or college. The degree program is a way to help a leader organize what level of supplemental training one pursues. The degrees are also a way for Scouters to collect one more patch, as most Scouters love collecting patches.

Who attends this Golden Opportunity?

All leaders, assistants, and committee members registered with any unit. The course selection is varied so that regardless of unit position, one will gain something to take back and implement in the unit. It does not matter if one is a first year leader or a 53-year veteran, everyone is guaranteed to learn something new or gain a clearer understanding of the various aspects of the Scouting programs.

Participants should be in proper field uniform and should bring their Scout Spirit, curiosity, questions, and a notebook. Registration fees cover all costs. Fee is $23   Early Bird is $20 if registered and paid by March 10th. There are over 40 topics to choose from to earn your Degree. Registration begins at 8:00 am. Opening begins at 8:45 am. Classes begin at 9:00 am.

REGISTER EARLY FOR THE EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT!!!

As Scouters, we continue to grow. As we pass along our Scouting knowledge to our peers and to our Scouts, they too will grow. The new adults and youth of today want to know the ways of Scouting. If they do not grow, Scouting will not progress and that would be a great loss to all.
