Training Day

April 26, 2025

trainingTraining is an important part of learning to become an effective leader. Trained leaders impact the quality of programs, leader tenure, youth tenure, and a whole lot more. A trained leader is better prepared to make the Scouting program all it can be! Every Scout deserves a trained leader. See the council training schedule for a list of additional trainings offered around the council. 

The trainings are being held at St. Matthew's United Methodist Church (4300 N Shepherd Dr, Houston, TX 77018). Bring a sack lunch.
