Become a Leader

Become a Trained Leader

Parents are the lifeblood of our troop. Without them, our program would be limited and our Scouts would be missing out on the fun.

It is very easy to become a Trained Leader in our troop. ALL the required training can be taken online - so you can take the training at your own pace.

Discuss which role would best fit your talents and comfort level

Parent Action Items

Volunteer to help with small defined tasks.
Ask your Adult Leaders if they need help.
Ask the Scoutmaster or Committee Chair about the needs of the Troop.
Remain positive and look for ways to improve the program - turn problems into solutions. We are not perfect and we will never will be perfect. So don't expect perfect, expect honest effort.
Follow the advice we give the boys... Do your best. If that includes getting trained then you need to get trained.
Encourage other parents to help. Work as a team with projects that need attention.
