Cahuenga District
Scout Leader Training


Trained Patch

Trained leaders provide a quality, fun-filled program for the boys.
When leaders understand Scouting, they are more effective in their roles.

This emblem is available to all adult leaders who have completed
Fast Start Orientation, New Leader Essentials, and Leader Specific Training
for their position. It is worn on the left sleeve, below and touching the emblem
of leadership for which it was earned.
