Unit Leaders: For SFBAC-NYLT to be effective, we
need your help. This page is meant to give you a short summary of what to
expect and how you can help.
Youth
Selection: SFBAC-NYLT is meant as a training course. It
is not summer camp.The participants that you send should be mature enough that
they can come back to your unit and be in a meaningful leadership
position. |
 |
| Do
Send: |
Do send
a youth that you expect to take on a leadership position in your
Unit. |
Do send
a mature person; sometimes having a youth wait a year before going
to NYLT is better for him (her) and the Unit. |
Do send
youth that will be a credit to your Unit. |
|
|
| Do
Not Send: |
Do not
send someone that you need to keep an eye on on your outings. |
Do not
send someone that have not had at least one multi-day camp experience. |
Do not
send someone that does not want to go. |
| Do not
send your trouble-maker in hopes that NYLT will fix him
in a week. |
|
|
What
is Expected: The partipant will be learning the basic
leadership skills outlined in What is NYLT? For learning to be most
effective, the skills need to be applied. This, in addition to the
selection process, is where the Unit Leader helps most. |
|
| Goals
to Complete: Either going into NYLT, or coming
out of NYLT, the participant should have some ideas on how to make the
Unit better. These need to be agreed upon by both the Unit Leader
and the youth. The youth should have a list of 3 goals to complete. |
|
| Completion:
We encourage Leaders to work with their NYLT participants to have the Goals sized so that they are completed
in the October-November timeframe. When the participant has
demonstrated leadership thru these agreed-upon goals, then
E-mail SFBAC-NYLT at Info@Brownsea-NYLT.org and
state what the youth has done to demonstrate leadership. |
|
| How NYLT is integrated with other Youth Training programs: |
See the webpage: Youth Leadership Training Continuum or download a pdf version of the page. As yet, neither of these has been fully updated to integrate Venturing into the Youth Training Programs. However, the content is applicable both for Boy Scouts and Venturing.. |
|
| SFBAC-NYLT, formerly known as Brownsea-NYLT, is offered by San Francisco Bay Area Council, Boy Scouts of America.
One session is offered in 2012 - Monday, June 25 to Saturday, June 30. SFBAC-NYLT is open to BOTH Boy Scouts AND Venturers
from all Councils. |
