Welcome!

Scouting is a worldwide phenomenon that has blessed the lives of millions of youth and adults for more than a century. We are proud to be a part of that tradition, and glad to share in it with you! The purpose of the University of Scouting is to provide a Council-level forum to gather Scouts and Scouters from all our units to share and grow together. As we teach and learn from each other, we gain more than “Scouting skills.” We gain life skills, make and renew friendships, and enrich our lives. We arm ourselves to do even more in our service to others. We are better prepared to lift ourselves and others, and enjoy the journey of Scouting. We are better prepared to deliver on the promise of Scouting- that through adventure and fellowship, we will all be better people, who work to make the world a better place. This year the experience will be enhanced by the company of our friends from the Girl Scouts of the USA. This year’s University of Scouting promises to be the biggest we have had in many years, and sets the stage for even grander adventures to come. We hope you enjoy your experience, and will “pay it forward” through your ongoing service to our youth and our communities. Bryan Blair Training Committee Chair Blue Mountain Council

Location

Classes are held on the campus of

Columbia Basin College, in Pasco, WA. We

youth participants. This includes the use of

electronic cigarettes, personal vaporizers,

or other tools.

Class Registration & Availability

Registration for all classes is online at

https://scoutingevent.com/604-2017UOS.

We strongly encourage participants to

register before the event to help ensure

they have a spot in classes, and to help

instructors prepare for the right number of

students.

Walk-ins will be welcomed on the day of

the event, but we cannot guarantee a spot

in classes.

It is our intention to offer every class

presented on the course schedule.

However, low enrollment or changes in

instructor availability may cause the

cancellation or rescheduling of some

courses. We will do our best to minimize

the impact of this on all participants. If you

register for a course that is rescheduled or

cancelled, we invite you to join with

another course.

Unit Displays & Contest

Units are invited to share a tabletop

presentation highlighting their Troop, Crew,

or Post. Displays should be set up in the

Demonstration area of the Career and

Technical Education (CTE) building. Please

consider bringing your own small folding

table to ensure you have a spot if all tables

are used. Presentations should be a stand-

alone so they can be understood by judges

without explanation. Judging will be during

lunch, with three winners receiving a $50

credit to the Boy Scout or Girl Scout store.

Organization Representatives, who are also often registered as Committee members. Presenting both

and to equip them with organizational and leadership skills to fulfill those responsibilities. ILST is the first

course in the series of leadership training offered to Boy Scouts and is a replacement for Troop

Leadership Training. Completion of ILST allows a Boy Scout to wear the “Trained” tab with his position of

responsibility patch. Completion of ISLT is a prerequisite for Boy Scouts to participate in the more

advanced leadership courses National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) and the National Advanced

Youth Leadership Experience (NAYLE). It is also required to participate in a Kodiak Challenge Trek.

Although this course focuses on Boy Scout Troop leadership, it will be open to Girl Scouts interested in

learning principles of leadership to apply in their Troops. NOTE: This course is designed primarily to be

delivered at the Troop level and can be a team-building experience for Troop leadership. This course is

being offered at the University of Scouting in recognition of the fact that not all youth have the benefit

of this course being offered regularly in their Troops. Youth attending this course should have an adult

leader from their unit attend with them. This will help facilitate course participants being able to take

what they have learned and implement this training course at the Troop level.
