NYLT/Impeesa Training

   This summer I went to Impeesa/NYLT (National Youth Leadership Training).  For those who don't know what that is, it is a high end scout leadership training for boys. Just as a heads up you only get two shirts to wear for the whole six day course (it stinks I know [no pun intended]), and you will need your mess kits (believe it or not when I went there someone actually thought they would provide plates and silverware, which they don't).

   A good analogy for Impeesa is a summer camp where you learn to work as a team and become better leaders.  Some of the things I did was watch a movie (boring, right? just kidding), build a catapult, and build a chariot.  I will admit there was a fair amount of class room time, but there were also lots of activities.  All in all I had a blast and I would highly suggest going if you are interested in leaning about leadership and team building.

Did I mention that venture crews can now go as well (at least where I live you guys can)?
