The College of Youth Leadership (CYL) is youth-led leadership training developed and presented by the Wauna La-Mon’tay Lodge. CYL is open to all registered Troop-aged Scouts who want to enhance their leadership skills, share ideas, and enjoy a day of fellowship with other Scouts from around the council. The courses are taught by lodge members in two tracks, Introductory and Advanced, using games and interactive presentations.
Introductory Track
Best for newer scouts ages 11-13 or 14-15-year-olds with no leadership experience. This track puts an emphasis on basic leadership. Scouts will learn the required material to best lead a patrol. Skills learned include how to lead small groups, team building, goal setting, and other essential leadership knowledge.
Advanced Scout Track
Designed for 14-17-year-olds. This track is designed to empower scouts to become a Senior Patrol Leader. Advanced leadership skills are used in this course to improve upon previous experience and training. Scouts will find this track utilizes skills that they already have and teach them what they don’t know so that they will be the best leader they can be.
Impact for Generations.
Prepared for Life.
This is more than a motto. It is a manifesto. It is our promise to the community and to every parent and child who Scouts with us. By Scouting in the Cascade Pacific Council (CPC) of the Boy Scouts of America, every youth can learn to make an impact on the world around them and be more prepared for career and life.
