Troop 1001,

Hi, my name is Preston Foust and I’m working on my Eagle Scout project! I’m building sensory discovery boards/ walls for the active learning students at Brentfield Elementary. These boards will give students hands-on activities that help them explore, learn, and have fun while engaging their senses.

I would love your help to make this project happen! You can volunteer to help with tasks like sanding, painting, attaching sensory items, and making sure everything is sturdy and safe. Everyone is welcome to join THIS WEEKEND. (3-28-3/29)

You can sign up to help here and if you’d like to support you can donate here. Every bit of help counts and will make a big difference for the students.

Thank you for helping me create something that will bring joy and learning opportunities to these amazing kids!

Thank you 

-YIS Preston Foust

THIS training is an excellent opportunity for your son and is required to be a patrol leader in the Troop.

Attending National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is a transformative experience for Scouts that bridges the gap between basic unit-level skills and advanced, real-world leadership.

• Confidence & Communication: Scouts learn to lead with confidence, master public speaking, and use effective communication techniques like active listening and the MaSeR (Message, Sender, Receiver) model.
• Advanced "Toolbox" of Skills: The course provides practical tools for:
  • Goal Setting: Learning to set SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) goals.
  • Conflict Resolution: Techniques for managing disagreements and guiding teams through the "Storming" stage of development.
  • Project Planning: Understanding how to create a vision and develop a plan to achieve it.
• Teaching Proficiency: Participants master the EDGE method (Explain, Demonstrate, Guide, Enable), allowing them to effectively teach skills to others in their home units.
• Life Beyond Scouting: The leadership theories taught are modern and applicable to school, future careers, and personal relationships, helping youth become high-functioning members of their communities.

Scouts BSA: At least 13 years old and have reached the First Class rank

Training: Must have completed the Introduction to Leadership Skills (ILST)
