Okama 20 is updated to exceed the current requirements for all Boy Scout Leader and Troop Committee fundamental training courses: This is Scouting, Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Specific Training, Troop Committee Specific Training and Basic Outdoor Skills. If Youth Protection Training has not been taken prior to the Okama course, it will be possible to complete this requirement during the course.

Everything that Blackfoot training is in the Spring, Okama is in the Fall. This type of training is still the best interactive indoor and outdoor learning experience, taught by an experienced and enthusiastic staff. This enhanced course allows Parents, Scoutmasters, Assistant Scoutmasters, Committee Chairmen, Chartered Organization Representatives, Committee Members, Webelos Leaders and Den Leaders to “live” Scouting and learn by doing. It helps Webelos Leaders, Cub Leaders and parents to prepare early for their sons’ “Crossing Over” into Scouting. The course provides great fun, new friends and outstanding benefits for all Scouters aged 18 and older


Cost: $55.00 before 9/5, $65 thereafter
