It also provides new leaders with a look at the resources available to them through the Boy Scouts of America, and a clear understanding of Scoutings' expectations of it's adult leadership.
Who attends New Leader Essentials? All new adult leaders of Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, Webelos Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, or Venturers, and suggested for new members of the District Committee and Council Executive Boards.
