Leave No Trace, Trainer Course
Cost Includes all Training Materials and Food
This BSA / Center for Outdoor Ethics Leave No Trace Trainer Course will give the youth the necessary tools to fulfill their duties in the NEW Outdoor Ethics Guide Troop Position of Responsibility. Age requirement 14 YRS. Adults are encouraged and welcome to attend to learn how to minimize your impact when recreating outdoors and become better stewards of the land.
Please bring a tent and your personal weekend camping gear, including a mess kit and small service shovel/trowel. A detailed personal gear packing list can be found in the Boy Scout Handbook.
A current BSA physical form ( part A and B ) and a signed Center for Outdoor Ethics Waiver are required. These forms along with registration can be found on the Council website www.tampabayscouting.org. Please inform us of any food allergies or special needs prior to this date. Successful completion of this course will give you dual certification with both BSA and the Center for Outdoor Ethics.
Dietary Restrictions
The Greater Tampa Bay Area Council recognizes that there are many potential dietary restrictions as well as common diets (e.g., low-calorie and low-carbohydrate) and common food allergies (e.g., to gluten, citrus fruit, dairy, eggs, fish, nuts/ peanuts, and shellfish). Individuals will need to consider this and avoid such items in their choices in the dining hall. In addition, remember that the Food Team cannot feasibly plan for all specific dietary needs of all persons attending the event. Therefore, all special dietary needs must be indicated at the time of registration. Depending upon the special food requirements they may be asked to make their own arrangements to meet those needs by bringing their own food — just as they would bring their own medications. Any dietary requests made within 2 weeks of the event will not be able to be honored.
