Youth Leader Training is an intense weeklong leadership-training course for scouts. The course is intended for a troop’s current and future youth leaders. Scouts who are about to assume the positions of Assistant Patrol Leader, Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, and Senior Patrol Leader can all benefit from this course.

This is a week of fun and hard work that will provide the participants with a working knowledge of the leadership skills that have been proven successful in Scouting over the years. The skills acquired at YLT are useful outside of scouting as well.

YLT is perhaps the most powerful Youth Leadership teaching tool available in Scouting!

To qualify for admission to YLT, a scout must be recommended by his Scoutmaster, be 13 years of age as of August 1 of the year of the course and First Class or above. The conference will be held at Camp KV in Readfield. Camp KV offers a beautiful site with 65 acres, a sports field, and other amenities for this course.

Participation is limited to only two Scouts per troop, with enrollment capped at 48 Scouts. This popular course fills up quickly! For more information call Pine Tree Council at 797-5252 ext. 14.
