One of the challenges we face is transporting a troop our size to camping events. Fortunately we have access to two buses that are owned by our sponsor. The "small bus" seats fourteen passengers and the "big bus" seats twenty-five. In order to drive the big bus a driver must have a commercial driver license (CDL). Currently we have only one active adult with a CDL. This situation often puts us in a position when we have access to the big bus - but do not have a driver.

National Youth Leadership Training is an exciting, action-packed program designed to provide youth members of the Boy Scouts of America with leadership skills and experience they can use in their home troops and in other situations demanding leadership of self and others. Patrol Leaders, Assistant Senior Patrol Leaders, Senior Patrol Leaders and Troop Guides will benefit greatly from this training.
