Training

Welcome to the Golden Eagle District Training page!

Every youth in the Scouting program needs and deserves a leader who understands the aims of the program and knows how to deliver it with enthusiasm and fun. Because they understand their role, trained leaders have a positive influence in the lives of the youth. Research shows that Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Venturers with well trained leaders advisors and counselors - enjoy the program more and stay in it longer. How well we influence the lives of these youth depends on the leaders' understanding of the Scouting program and their responsibilities.
