VENTURING LEADERSHIP SKILLS COURSE
The VLSC is a program for youth (usually run by youth), teaching leadership in a fun and exciting way -- usually on a crew outing. Every crew should consider running this leadership course within their members and watching the fun that develops. The VLSC is required for the Silver Award.
This is a free program offered by the council. Please contact Jared White at 314-256-3092 to reserve the VLSC box.
