The format of the course will be backpacking.  Friday night the participants will setup camp in at the campsites below the Catawba Shelter at Belk Scout Camp and break camp early Saturday morning and prepare to hit the trail.  A good portion of the training will happen on the trail and be taught by the participants who will be given specific assignments to prepare for.  Saturday night we will experience camping in a pristine area of Belk Scout Camp.   Sunday we will return to the Catawba Shelter for final the final sessions.  There are only 16 slots for this course so space is very limited.  Slots will be filled on a first come first served basis.  This course is a REQUIREMENT for the troop "Leave No Trace Trainer" leadership position.  Cost of the course is $60.  If you have any questions about this course or any other Leave No Trace training, contact Barry Douthitt (barry@mccscouter.com)
