MarkS and LisaBob, I have to check too but I thought it said "orient" to their new den leader position. I was a Den Leader Coach and I didn't train but I did orient and I develop a "how to" for new leaders. I coached them through their frist few meetings etc. I will check the book. BBB96

Thank you both for your responses. The information is great and I will put it good use. This exactly the feedback I was looking for as I start to figure out which direction to go with Pack Trainers. Keeping new Trainers coming up to the District Level to train is important in keeping the training fresh and exciting. I replaced a Council Training Chairman who had been in place for 8 years. Yup, 8 years, needless to say things are changing. Thank you Both, BBB96

As a new Council Training Chairman one area of concern is Pack Trainer. My Council has not had a very postive repsonse to recuting or encouarging Packs to have a PACK TRAINER. In reviewing the national job description Pack Trainers are to help keep the pack on track for trained leaders and to get new leaders to training. Plus help with orienting new leaders. Does anyone have any success examples or lessons learned as they tried to get the Packs to recruit Pack Trainers? Did anyone modify the job description? Does anyone have Pack Trainers join the District Training Committees?
