Why Should I Get Trained?

E-mail Print PDF

Why should I get trained for my position?

Do it for:
  • The Scouts: They deserve a trained, knowledgeable leader.
  • The Scout's Parents: They expect the person leading their child to be trained, prepared and knowledgeable.
  • Because the IMPACT you will have on YOUTH is HUGE. You are a role model and a leader; take advantage of the training available to you to get the skills and knowledge you should have.
  • Yourself: You will learn and be a more confident leader and better person.
  • The FUN of it: You want (need) to have fun too!
In short, you will be able to deliver a better program (productive fun meetings, quality time with the Scouts, new games, etc.) A better program delivers a better unit. A better unit reults in a better person. A better person changes the world into a better place!
