Greetings fellow Scouters!
Here’s hoping that you have some excellent plans to spend time with family and friends over the holidays.
Only 10 days left until the new year. Where did all the time go?
And with the new year fast approaching I wanted to get a quick message out to you about our early bird fee for Wood Badge 2019.
The regular fee for Wood Badge is $325, however if you get your registration and fee into the Council office by December 31st, the cost is only $275.
What a great deal!
For those of you not familiar with Wood Badge, it is a two 3-day weekend course in August and September.
It is a fast-paced full tilt course that covers a wide range of skills for the Scouting (and business) world.
Many Scouters use the skills taught in Wood Badge in their jobs and day to day activities.
You probably know a critter (participant) from a previous course.
Ask them if Wood Badge is right for you. It is the highest training that an adult volunteer can earn in Scouting.
If you can’t make the 12/31 deadline, no worries, you can still sign up.
We have a $30 discount if registered and paid in full by April 1st After that registration will be the full course fee.
There are some scholarships available, plus many units and other organizations are willing to help fund the cost.
As it a great return on the investment of you.
2019 marks the 100th anniversary of Wood Badge since it’s conception in Gilwell Park, England.
Here is a link to the registration form:

I hope to see you this summer!
Please share this email with your fellow Scouters. Our youth deserve trained leaders!
