COPE Instructor Level 1 Training

Thank you for expressing interest in volunteering with the COPE and Climbing program at Fire Mountain! Your willingness to contribute your time and energy plays a vital role in creating memorable and meaningful experiences for our Scouts.

We have two training events scheduled to prepare you for upcoming COPE and Climbing activities:

·       May Training: Arrival on May 2nd at 7:00 PM, departure on May 4th around 4:00 PM.

·       June Training: Arrival on June 6th at 7:00 PM, departure on June 8th around 4:00 PM.

Whether you can attend both weekends, just one, or even part of a weekend, we welcome your participation! We understand everyone has different schedules, so we will maintain checklists to track your progress. This way, you can continue training right where you left off if attending only part of the training.
