2015 GNYC Training Extravaganza
Strength from Leading and Training Together
The Training Extravaganza provides an opportunity
for experienced, new and prospective Scout Leaders,
parents and Boy Scouts to gather together to share
fun, ideas and excitement that will lead to a better
program for Scouts and to re-energize and renew
their commitment to the purposes of Scouting. It is
fun, informative and imaginative.
The Extravaganza is supplemental training. It is best
if new Leaders attend Leader Fast Start and Leader
Specific Training before attending the Extravaganza.
However, the Extravaganza can be attended before
these other courses.
