Troop 65 Wood Badge Trained Leaders
Wood Badge training was started by Baden Powell (the founder of Scouting) in 1919 as a way to assure that the leaders of Scout Troops were properly trained. Since then, Wood Badge training has been held worldwide providing advanced leader training to thousands of Scout Leaders.
Wood Badge is considered the premier leadership training course for Scout Leaders. Wood Badge for the 21st Century is available to registered leaders of all levels of the Scouting program – Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Varsity and Venturing. It concentrates on providing training on modern leadership skills needed in today’s world for Scout leaders. Wood Badge Training will not only make an adult a better Scout Leader, it will also assist in improving their personal and professional life as well.
Through Wood Badge, adult leaders gain valuable tools in listening, communicating, conflict management, project planning and leading change. They learn to better understand and leverage diversity and the generational differences of society; to lead with a vision; and learn the skills that will make a better Scout Leader to benefit the youth we serve.
Upon completion of training and "working their ticket", wood badgers are awarded the MacLaren Tartan Neckerchief, the Wood Badge Beads and assigned into one of eight critter patrols that are part of a Troop 1, Gilwell Park (England). Learn more about Wood Badge here
