YOUTH LEADERS
Troop 899 is a boy led group. While there is a large amount of input from our adult leadership, it is important to put the responsibility on the Scouts. Empowering boys to be leaders is the core of Scouting. Scouts learn by doing, and what they do is lead their patrols and their troop.
ADULT LEADERS
One of our most important challenges is to train boy leaders to run the troop by providing direction, coaching and support. The boys will make mistakes now and then and will rely upon the adult leaders to guide them. But only through real hands-on experience as leaders can boys learn to lead.
