By attending the Buckskin Trail you will learn the rules of Safe Scouting, how to be trained in Youth Protection, and learn the skills of Outdoor activities. The functions of the Scout Troop and its committees will also be explained as you become a member of the Buckskin Scout Troop, form patrols, and operate as part of the Troop using the Patrol Method. It is very important to be trained to enrich your knowledge of the Boy Scout Program. Understanding the program ensures the success of each Troop and each Scout in the Troop. By coming to the Buckskin Trail you will feel at ease with using the Scouting Program, and will be able to make Scouting FUN for you and your Scouts.

Many Scouters return to the Buckskin Trail each year to help their fellow Scouters by sharing their experiences and knowledge, and in the process enrich their lives by renewing friendships they have made on the Trail. Please join the Buckskin Trail this year and help make your Scouting experience safe and fun for you and your Scouts through an increased understanding of the Scout Program.
