Program

This is the heart of the Scouting program. When a youth joins Scouting there is a wealth of opportunity that opens up. In the same way, there are numerous chances for the adult leaders to take part. For the youth, camping, Advancement, and all of the activities and events that may be found on the unit, council, and district calendars make up a large part of any Scout's program. In addition, the Order of the Arrow and Chief Pontiac Trail add their parts to the Scouting experience.

Training is an essential part of delivering a quality Scouting program. Whether it is for the adult leaders or the youth, the Great Lakes Council and the Boy Scouts of America offer some of the best training courses you can find to help develop leadership and camping skills.

Finally, there are a lot of awards that are available to Scouters over and above the training knots. The awards page has information on many of these.
