Council Program Planning Kickoff - April 13, 2019 - Volunteer Service Center

Posted on Apr 4 2019 - 10:58pm

Send at least one Leader to the Council Program Planning Kickoff – April 13, 2019

The Program Kick Off is likely the most important meeting you will attend this year!  A strong and safe Scouting program starts with planning.  This conference will give you the tools you need to plan and deliver a safe, top-notch program in 2019-2010, as well as give you access to resource and programs that can save you and your leadership team a lot of time. The Program Kick Off is a unit focused, volunteer driven event where we will distribute the new 2019-2020 Council Program Calendar, deliver sessions on key elements to a strong and safe unit program from experienced volunteer leaders, provide answers to all of your Scouting questions and concerns, and provide exclusive early bird registration for activities. The Program Kick Off also features a midway with over 40 Scouting programs and community organizations sharing exciting opportunities your Scouts can enjoy this coming year. In addition, Youth Protection, Safe Scouting, and training materials will be available free of charge to all attendees. Be sure that at least 1 leader from your Pack or Troop is attending. Register at Program-Kick-Off-2019
