  Adult Leader Training Opportunities March 4 
  at Merit Badge University 
  Pre-Register by 7pm Feb. 24!

  Pre-Register for New Leader Essentials and Position Specific Training taking place on Saturday, March 4, at the University of Arkansas.



  Boy Scout leaders can bring their scouts to participate in MBU and spend their day in training. It will be timed so leaders can drop their boys off, make it to training and then back to pick them up at the end of the day.

  If you are a new leader, sign up to take New Leader Essentials and Scoutmaster part 1 Specific Training.**  If you have already had these sessions, you can take Scoutmaster parts 2 & 3 training to complete this portion of your basic training (you still have to take Intro to Outdoor Leader Skill Training to be fully trained.)

  Additionally, the Committee Challenge training will be offered for Boy Scout Committee members. Again, be SURE you pre-register.



  Cub Scout leaders can come for the day and take New Leader Essentials and their Position Specific Training and be done.  Position specific training for Tiger leaders, Cub leaders (Wolf/Bear), Webelos, Pack Committee, and Cubmaster/Asst. Cubmaster will be offered.

  You can find the forms for this training opportunity at the Service Center or take the link to the left for more information and a registration form.



  PLEASE NOTE: You MUST pre-register. Forms are on-line at www.razorbackscouts.org Training page
  We will provide instructors for every position that we have someone pre-registered for. If you just show up you risk not having an instructor or not having enough handout material. YES, THIS CAN BE A PROBLEM. At the last training only 12 pre-registered and 25 showed up causing MAJOR PROBLEMS for the volunteer trainers. We want to train everyone, so we need you to be courteous and let us know you are coming by the deadline of 7pm February 24th.

  ** If you take New Leader Essentials and Scoutmaster part 1 on March 4th (or have taken it some other time previously) you can complete this portion of basic training on the evenings of March 14 &16 by taking Scoutmaster Specific parts 2 & 3 during these evenings. More details on location and a registration form will be available soon (it will probably be at the Jones Center).
