Lakamaga Adult Education
Conference: Join other
Girl Scout volunteers at the 2010 Lakamaga Adult Education Conference,
Spark
the Fire Within, at Camp Lakamaga, August 20 - 22. This adult education
conference is a great opportunity to get the Girl Scout training you
need,
attend personal enrichment sessions, and enjoy the fellowship of other
dynamic
Girl Scout volunteers. Shop at the troop boutique on Saturday, August
21 where
a variety of unique girl-made crafts will be available for purchase
from the
girls. Registration forms for the conference are available.
- The adult training sessions, including
Leadership
Essentials and Beyond the Troop, for new and returning
leaders are
now posted on the River Valleys Web site. You can
search for training by
city, county, session name, etc. – location details are
available by clicking on the session name in the search results. Please
be sure to register for all training sessions
to avoid arriving at a training location and not have a trainer show up
due to low registration numbers!
Leadership Essentials was
formerly Program Grade Level Training. It replaces Basic Leadership and
Age Level training.
Beyond the
Troop was formerly Outdoor Training. The table below
lists Beyond the Troop
training sessions, brief descriptions, and their equivalencies to
Outdoor Training sessions. Note that there is no direct correlation
from
previous training sessions to the
new Beyond the Troop training sessions.
