Going forward, anyone who wants to run for the position of SPL must have completed the NYLT (National Youth Leadership Training).
In order to go, you must also receive a letter of recommendation from your scoutmaster, be at least a first class scout and 13 years or older.
I bring this up because 2 NYLT courses are coming this summer and the positions fill up quickly.
Here is the info:
