Boy Scouts Adult Leader

Was a boy scout leader for 13 years until by boys aged out at 18. During this time, I was extremely involved in council committees and adult leadership. I served on the district Adult Leader Training staff which involved creating presentations for both indoor and outdoor sessions. I also served on advanced council training staff.
