The Advanced Leadership Experiences offered by Connecticut Yankee Council will help you develop the tools to take your unit to the next level. We offer mountain-top, transformational experiences set in a scouting environment for youths and adults that will empower you to reach your full potential as a leader.  Adults experience what it is like to be a scout and youth learn critical leadership skills and techniques they will use their whole lives.  And, of course, we make sure to have fun while we do it!  Find out more about upcoming National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT), Wood Badge, and Powderhorn by clicking on the links below.

“Thank you again for all your hard work putting together the course. I thought it was a great experience. Overall it was very energizing for me to see so many good people gathered together in the spirit of service to the youth and to one another. “
 
“It’s those little individual interactions that grow to have snowball effects. You’ve helped trip an avalanche.”
 
“I laughed, I cried, and almost lost my voice, several times. I would like to thank the staff for keeping the ENTHUSIASM! And being a mentor for those who need one. Congratulations on a successful and memorable Wood Badge course. The staff has changed my life in a huge way and have influenced me greatly; I will never forget my time at Wood Badge. Awesome job!”
 
“I really appreciate all of the preparation and hard work that you and the Wood Badge staff provided to make this a fantastic experience for me and everyone else. All of the staff and presenters did a terrific job and devoted an incredible amount of time to benefit our Scouting leaders. The experience with my patrol and the other attendees brought back many memories of my youth Scouting experience and really broadened my understanding of Scouting and leadership. I know this experience will help make me a better leader not only in Scouting but in other areas of my life. I am honored to have been part of this Wood Badge course and very grateful for the opportunity. As you emphasized and we learned during the course, we are all fortunate to share this wonderful mission together – to provide Scouting to our youth and change their lives for the better. I really appreciate your and the team’s time that went into this program (and will STILL go into the program in the months and year ahead).”
