The most advanced training available for Scout Leaders.
Wood Badge is the embodiment of Scouting spirit. Like many intense training experiences, it
has always relied on a busy schedule forcing the participants to work together, organize and
develop an enthusiasm and team spirit to accomplish the tasks and challenges placed before
them. Carried out in context of Scouting ideals and service to young people, the course brings
out a deep dedication and spirit of brotherhood and fellowship in it’s participants.
