Mid-America Council

National Youth Leadership Training

(NYLT)

NOTE:  Only Scoutmasters, Crew Advisors, and Sea Scout Skippers (NOT PARENTS) can register Scouts for this course!

NYLT challenges each participants' mental, physical and emotional condition. Participants who come to the course are assigned at random to patrols to work together. As a patrol, they will cook, attend presentations, and function together with spirit and teamwork. This course is a demanding program that does not offer field sports, merit badges, or a regular trading post. NYLT gives participants the confidence, knowledge and leadership skills to run their units' program. NYLT will allow participants to share ideas and experiences with their Scouting peers. It will provide an opportunity to experience Scouting at its best, enhance the relationship between the participant and his or her adult leaders, and be lots of fun for every participant. 

Session will be limited to 80 total participants

When:  Sunday, June 11, 2023 12 PM - Friday, June 16, 2023 5 PM

CAMP EAGLE, 2911 County Road 15, Cedar Bluffs, NE  68015
