The University of Scouting

 

Purpose

The success of Scouting in the Lincoln Heritage Council has for over 102 years depended entirely on the quality and strength of the volunteers that deliver meaningful weekly programs to its 29,000 Scouts. The ability of volunteers to deliver that weekly program is strengthened by quality training at the district and council level. The  Lincoln Heritage Council has much to be proud of in the area of quality training.  

The University of Scouting is a one-day training event that offers workshops for Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Venturing, Commissioner, and District Committee volunteers. The council training committee has assembled the best trainers in the  council, and has  selected a wide spectrum of individual workshops that will strengthen each volunteer’s ability to deliver better Scouting for our youth.   We think you will agree that the range of workshops available through the University of Scouting will improve your leadership skills and deepen your understanding of the impact Scouting has on young people.   Encourage every volunteer and interested parent to take the time to attend; we are sure that they will walk away with not only new skills and ideas, but with some new and renewed passion for Scouting.  

Contact Larry J. Arnold, Training and Advancement Director, with all questions and concerns. He can be reached at 502-400-5373 or larry.arnold@scouting.org.
