Please pass the word to all parents and volunteers that our scouts deserve trained leaders. As unit leaders, imagine a pack, troop, crew, or ship with 100% trained leaders! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Online Training Opportunities. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong>Here is how to get caught up with online training
\u2022 Take the online course for your registered position via <\/span><\/span><\/span>https:\/\/my.scouting.org\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. Remember that if you change positions, you need to register for the new role and take the training for that role to be considered \u201cTRAINED.\u201d Visit <\/span><\/span><\/span>my.scouting.org<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> for all your online training needs!
\u2022 It is MANDATORY for every leader to be current with Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT). SYT must be renewed every year. A 20-minute refresher SYT course is available for persons who already completed the 90-minute SYT course and renew their training before expiration. The 20-minute refresher option goes away if SYT is expired for more than 1-week, and the 90-minute course must be repeated. Don\u2019t let it expire!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In-Person Training Opportunities<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong>. Trainings offered via online courses are also sometimes offered as in-person trainings. There are other courses (e.g., BALOO, IOLS, etc.) that are ONLY offered in-person. You may attend trainings hosted by Narcoossee District or any of the other Districts in the Central Florida Council. Training opportunities within Central Florida Council available in the next few months are listed below. Visit the <\/span><\/span><\/span>Council Training Calendar<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> to see all the training opportunities available within our Council. <\/span><\/span><\/span>When you visit the calendar website, click \u2018Apply Filter\u2019 and check the box for \u2018Training\u2019.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Dan Morrison <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong>and <\/span><\/span><\/span>John Lampe<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong> are leading the Narcoossee District Eagle Advancement Team. Welcome John, and thank you very much to Theresa Martinez for years of Advancement leadership in Osceola and Narcoossee districts. All Narcoossee District scouts should submit proposals and general Eagle advancement inquiries to <\/span><\/span><\/span>narcoosseeadvancement@gmail.com<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Please note the following information for Life scouts working on their Eagle Rank:<\/p>\n

1. The Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook was last updated in February 2023 and can be downloaded from the National website at:
https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/programs\/scouts-bsa\/advancement-and-awards\/eagle-scout-workbook\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2. Within the Project Proposal, the District Information requested on Page B should be entered as: <\/span><\/span><\/span>Narcoossee Eagle Chair; (407) 889-4403; 1951 S Orange Blossom Trail, Apopka, FL 32703; <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em>narcoosseeadvancement@gmail.com<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Life scouts who are ready for their Eagle Project Workbook review and District approvals should submit their proposals to <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

narcoosseeadvancement@gmail.com<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong> Be sure to include (1) your editable Workbook PDF, (2) readable PDF\/JPG scans or photos of your Page H and Fundraising Application signature pages, and (3) any photos, drawings, etc helpful to understand the proposal. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/span><\/span>4. Dr. Phillips Charities has established a matching grant fund at the Central Florida Council to which Eagle Scout candidates may apply for partial assistance to fund their Eagle Scout Service project. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Only projects located in Orange, Osceola & Seminole counties will be considered for approval.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em> For more information and application: <\/span><\/span><\/span>https:\/\/www.cflscouting.org\/dr-phillips-charities-eagle-service-project-grant-application\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

5. The Council has a new online tool for Eagle Rank Applications, which eliminates the need to mail paperwork until after the BOR is completed and provides support for completing the application and real-time tracking of status. \u00a0The tool and instructions for use are available at<\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>http:\/\/eagleapp.cflscouting.org\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The request should identify possible available dates for the EBOR, and if known, provide a location and preferred time. <\/span><\/span>A Scout may make this request, but must have coordinated with and cc their Unit Advancement Chair when doing so. When requesting, please allow for enough time to obtain reference letters, and provide multiple dates to aid in ease of scheduling. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
