Brownsea prepares Scouts to lead others by learning to lead themselves.

The course stresses Scouting values, outdoor skills, and basic leadership principles. At Brownsea, Scouts learn to work in Patrols that camp, cook, and solve problems together for three days and nights. They take part in learning discussions and ceremonies that develop Scout skills and leadership traits, as well as a number of Patrol activities that offer opportunities for hands-on learning and fun. All Scouts who attend must have at least
earned the rank of Second Class.
If paid by June 1st, the early registration fee
will be $100. Thereafter, it will be $115 REGISTER HERE If a Scout registers after having taken the Brownsea Essentials Course, an additional discount of $10 will apply to the fee then in effect. Spaces are limited and the course is expected to fill this year. Be sure to enroll soon! |
