2024 NYLT Course: December 26-31 at Camp Wisdom

Posted on Oct 31 2024 - 2:36pm
Circle Ten 2024 National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) winter courses, Sessions 5 & 6. 
 
As you may know, NYLT is a national-level BSA leadership course conducted at the council level. It is an action-packed course designed to provide Scouts BSA, Venturing and SeaScouts with leadership skills and experiences Scouts can use in their scouting unit and in future life experiences that demand leadership of self and others.
 
Sessions 5 & 6 will run concurrently from Thursday, December 26 through Tuesday, December 31 at historic Camp Wisdom in Dallas. Two highly trained and experienced staffs led by a youth course lead will deliver a program centered around leadership and team building competencies from a syllabus which incorporates the latest leadership concepts and presents fresh, vital, meaningful training for today’s Scouts. The Wood Badge trained adult staffs will provide safety, supervision and set the example for modeling the role of adults in the Scouting program.
 
The ideal NYLT participant is one who exhibits emotional maturity, a positive attitude and an openness to learning how to be a better leader while having FUN! Scouts should complete Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops (ILST) or Introduction to Leadership Skills for Crews (ILSC) prior to attending.

Registration is open through December 12 OR until the course fills to capacity at Circle Ten Council - 2024 NYLT - Session 5 & 6. The course is very popular, enrollment is limited and a waiting list is very common.
 
If you would like additional information or are interested in NYLT, please contact Edward Garcia, Circle 10 NYLT Program Director, at nyltcircleten@gmail.com.

We’re going back to the Brazos River - only WAY down river – to Bee Mountain Resort.

Bee Mountain Resort is a remote Texas ranch that sits on 350 acres on the Brazos River with 1.5 miles of clean sandy beaches. This section of the Brazos River is known for having some of the best water in Texas for fishing, kayaking, canoeing, boating, water sports and just about anything else that involves nature and wildlife.  Their campsites are all located directly on the Brazos River. Great tasting water from a deep well, clean restrooms located on premises and two port-a-potties will also be brought into our reserved area. The Scouts can go hiking, fishing and have some good old-fashioned Scouting fun!

To help cover the cost of campsites, the charge will be $10 per Scout (no charge for Adults).  All the details, signup and permission slip can be found HERE.
