Burke Lake - Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills (IOLS)

Event Details

Purpose of this Course

To safely offer Scouting America’s outdoor program and prepare your Scouts for that which lies ahead, you require the skills and knowledge necessary to tackle the same challenges your scouts will face on their adventures.  In this class you will learn how to build a fire, use an axe, cook outdoors, use a map and compass, responsibly care for the outdoors, and much more. Even if you were not a Scout as a young person yourself, you will come out of this course looking and acting like a seasoned camper.  This course, combined with Youth Protection Training and Scoutmaster Specific Training, will make you an "fully trained" Scouting America leader.
