What is The Buckskin Trail? The Buckskin Trail originated on Apr 20, 1954. Its purpose was to provide Scouting leaders in the Miami Valley Council with the skills and experience they needed to be successful with their youth in the outdoors. Although the course has adapted and changed over time, Buckskin’s mission is to provide Scoutmasters and Assistant Scoutmasters with their required Outdoor Leader Skills and Scoutmaster Fundamentals training certifications.

The replacement to New Leader Essentials (NLE) has been released. "This Is Scouting" has been uploaded to www.olc.scouting.org. The Council Training Committee is currently reviewing “This is Scouting” so that they can make the decision about when to discontinue teaching NLE. Everyone is incouraged to log on and take this new training. It should take about 1 hour to complete depending on your download speed. Also, you will find that the links to "Climb on Safely" and "Trek Safely" are now available as well. There is a new resource available for leadership training called "TLT" or "Troop Leadership Training" availible on the National Website or you can download it below. As always remember to pirnt TWO copies of your e-learning certificate - one for your records and one to turn in at roundtable to your District Training Chair or your District Executive.

Your BSA number is required for you to sign up for a MYSCOUTING account and complete your online training. The three ways to find your BSA number are listed below; (1) Your BSA Registration Card will include your number on the front. Check with your unit if you have not received one. (2) Your Scouting magazine label has your number on the second line of the label. Below are two examples from NATIONLA BSA’s web site Example 1 3BXBFCFX ****************** CAR-RT LOT**C-008 #0000036234560#444S 0248SMAR0805 07 1149 Example 2 3BXBFCFX ****************** CAR-RT LOT**C-008 #0000123456789#444S 0248SMAR0805 07 1149 (3) Finally you can contact the Scout Office at (937) 278-4825. It may take some time in order for the registrar to reply to your request due to busy recharter times. So please be patient. Renee Dale, Preble District Training Chair |
