Three Steps to Becoming a Trained Leader

Leadership Training

One of the keys to a successful Scouting experience for young people, second only to the selection of the right person for each responsibility, is trained volunteer leadership. Leadership training provides adult leaders with fundamental information about the aims and methods of the movement, as well as specifics about their particular roles in Scouting.

For this reason, the Cornhusker Council is committed to provide top quality training opportunities for leaders, parents and Scouts at the district and council levels. Through these efforts, the delivery of a better and quality Scouting program can be provided to our entire youth membership.

This course teaches the basic knowledge, skills, and attitude for the safe and proper use of a shotgun in shooting a moving target.  This course is at least 10 hours long and includes classroom and range time learning how to shoot shotguns at moving targets.
