Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills - IOLS
This is a required course for adults registered as a Scoutmaster or Assistant Scoutmaster and Venturers that run an outdoor program in the Colonial Virginia Council.
With a heavy heart, IOLS scheduled for Aug. 13, and weekend of Aug. 22-24 will be cancelled unless I can get enough instructors to volunteer by end of business Aug. 6th. If by some miracle, we get enough instructors, the Aug 13 prep meeting will be moved to Aug 12 due to a scheduling conflict. Flyer or cancelation notice will be ran in next week's newsletter. Contact: Karen Sutley, karensutley@cox.net or (757) 209-7989 by Aug 6th if you can help.

Woodbadge Training
What is Wood Badge?
In 1911, Baden-Powell took the first steps in training Scouting's adult leaders by organizing a series of lectures for Scouters. He made great strides in the years that followed, culminating in 1919 with the establishment of Wood Badge training. Wood Badge recipients now number more than 100,000 and can be found in all corners of the world. Click here to view the flyer.This fall we continue that training and would like for you to attend.
