Our Senior Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader and both of our Patrol Leaders have all successfully completed the National Youth Leader Training Conference. Three of these Scouts have been asked back to the 2007 course to serve on staff. These Scouts are also planning to attend the National Advanced Youth Leadership Experience at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico next summer.
