As leaders in Trail Life, our mission is to guide generations of courageous young men to honor God, lead with integrity, serve others, and experience outdoor adventure. Participating in this training will provide you with training, tools, and resources to help you do that.

This training will adequately prepare you to plan, prepare, and implement a Trail Life campout. While it is geared for leaders of Adventurers and Navigators, the knowledge, skills, and abilities you learn will enhance any Troop Leader. Attendees will learn and/or refresh skills in – fire building, orienteering, backpacking, wood tools, and more… in order to be confident enough to teach them. The Peak 3 training campout will run like a model Trail Life campout using the “patrol method” from the very beginning until the end. Attendees will be put in patrols and function as a patrol for the duration of the campout.

The attendance cap will be 32. So please register early and advise if you have to back out to so we can open the slot for another to attend. Cost will be $40 per person. Information on what to bring, and camp schedule will be released shorty. We will also be sending out the link to accept your payment.
