National Leadership Seminar

The National Leadership Seminar is a weekend conference focusing primarily on the skills and attributes of leadership.  It is intended primarily to enhance the leadership skills of the Order of the Arrow's key youth and adult members as they seek to improve their service to the Boy Scouts of America and the greater community.

Youth participants should be at least 15 years of age or a lodge officer.   Completion of the Lodge Leadership Development Program is desirable.  The seminar is an intensive experience in learning about the nature of leadership and practicing some of the skills that leaders use.  While it is designed to be fun, the course is also mentally challenging.  Participant should be developmentally, physically, and mentally prepared to actively engage in an exhausting, invigorating weekend. At the end of the seminar, participants make a contract with themselves to apply the skills learned in the seminar to projects in their unit, lodge, council, and community. Forms and further information can be obtained below on the pdf flyers. I suggest applying to the NLS in Leesville, SC due to the close location.
