Linked Troop Wood Badge
(SBR-25-1)
January 20-24, 2025
Summit Bechtel Reserve
Wood Badge is an immersive, advanced leadership training experience with a BSA unit structure. The weeklong Linked Troop Model Course offers Wood Badge training within a linked unit structure—two single-gender troops with a shared committee. This allows for smaller group learning as well as integrated experiences and activities—just like the Linked Troop model provides for Scouts in our program. Wood Badge at the Summit affords big-picture discussions and opportunities to connect with Scouters from all over the country in a first-rate setting. This course will empower you, reinvigorate your Scouting, and maximize the impact you’ll be ready to make locally.
Participants should plan to arrive January 19, 2025, 1–6 PM EST and can leave after 5 PM on January 24. Spots are limited. The cost of the course is $700 and it must be paid in full by 11/30/2024. $150 is due at the time of your registration.
Registration is OPEN!
