Leadership Development & Patrol Method
"The Eagle's Nest"
Scouts develop and grow in the program in two basic ways: the first, individual learning and skills development through individual advancement; and second, teamwork and leadership development through positions held in the patrol method. While the two are somewhat interconnected, they are separate, distinct and unique aspects of Scouting. This page and the linked pages below will deal with the Patrol Method. There are other sections of the site deal with the individual advancement - ranks, merit badges, and special skill awards.
