National Youth Leadership Training

The Simon Kenton Council is offering two sessions of the National Youth Leadership Training. Each course will instruct the participants in advanced leadership skills based on the National BSA syllabus, while maintaining their own traditions and ceremony.

NYLT is a week-long experience based on the activities of a typical troop during a month of program. The course is a combination of classroom and practical exercises, all taught by a youth-led staff, modeling the best in leadership skills, using the teaching E.D.G.E. The course is about vision based team building with a wide variety of fun and challenging activities.

To qualify for this exciting training, a Scout must be First Class, 13 years of age, and recommended by his Scoutmaster. We expect participants to abide by the Scout Oath and Law, governing all behavior. We expect participants to make decisions based on the principals of the Boy Scout program, as well as those skills they will be taught as part of the NYLT program.
