Seabadge SB-80-WI-2025

“Exploring New Depths of Leadership”

Seabadge is not about boating or nautical skills.  It is leadership and management training with a focus on guiding and enabling older youth to effectively run their units. While Seabadge was developed as an advanced leadership training program for Sea Scout adult leaders, the course is open to adult leaders of all Scouting America programs.

This is a virtual course held on Zoom over 2 weekends. You MUST attend all 4 sessions.

Each session will start at 9:00am and end at 3:00pm central time.
