I took the Explorer training last summer at Philmont. It emphasized council
and district operations. John Wolfgang, the National Exploring Training
Chairman, was a big part of putting on this course. You could try sending
him a snail mail. He should know what will be happening.
John's Address:
John Wolfgang
5600 54th Ave. #411
Riverdale, MD 20737
or Bill Evans:
1325 W. Walnut Hill Ln
Box 152079
Irving, TX 75015
Enjoy Philmont!
Jim Wiedenhoeft
Headwaters District Exploring Chairman,
Samoset Council, Central Wisconsin
