National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) 2013

National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is a week-long outdoor youth leadership experience for Boy Scouts, Venturers and Varsity Scouts. NYLT will prepare you to run your group's program by applying leadership skills taught and experienced during the course. The Conference challenges each participant's mental, physical and emotional condition. Participants who come to the Conference are assigned at random to teams to work together. As a team, they will cook, attend presentations, and function together with spirit and teamwork. The course is limited to 96 partiicipants; we anticipate it will fill by the end of February, so register early!
