Cub Leader Outdoor Experience
Need help getting your Cub Scout Program into the Outdoors? This is the course for you!
Den Chief Training
Designed for Youth (Den Chief Position), Adult Den Leaders, and Adult Troop Den Chief Advisors
The Den Chief Program is a key means of building relationships between the Cub Scout pack and the Scout troop. A den chief is a Scout who assists a Cub Scout or Webelos den leader at den and pack meetings and other Scouting events. A valuable source of guidance, skills, songs, and games, the den chief encourages the Scouts to advance and shares their enthusiasm for Scouting with the den.
Den Chief Training is the perfect course for enthusiastic Scouts (in a Troop, Crew, or Ship) who desire a leadership role and are interested in working with younger Scouts.
Den Leaders who currently have, or are interested in having, Den Chiefs should attend this training.
(Current Den Chiefs – interested in helping teach this course? Please contact me.)
