Why Wood Badge?
Wood Badge is an exciting, action-packed 5-day program designed to provide all adult members of the BSA with leadership skills and experience they can use in their home units, districts or councils. At Wood Badge, we embrace the culture of Servant Leadership, with a view to achieving success for all.
Leadership requires constant personal evaluation to encourage individual growth and improvement. The Wood Badge course is experience-based learning through group dynamics. The leadership and team-building skills you perfect will be utilized in many areas of Scouting, and in your life.
Wood Badge is a positive learning experience conducted in a positive learning environment, full of fun and fellowship. The guiding principles are the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Attending Wood Badge will help you perform your Scouting functions more effectively, with less time and more teamwork.
Attending Wood Badge helps improve the way you lead Scouting youth in having more fun, learning more skills, and becoming better citizens.
