Testimonials

What Scout's Say

``

“The NYLT Leadership Academy is truly a special place. From my first moments at camp, I was immediately welcomed with open arms from everyone.  The environment there is perfect for learning and growing YOUR presentation and leadership skills. I would absolutely do it all over again.”

Eric B., Cradle of Liberty Council

“The NYLT Leadership Academy, was, above all, a place engineered for personal improvement. When you combine incredible instruction with an open environment for growth, you see remarkable results, and that is what the Leadership Academy does.  It goes down in my books as one of the most rewarding and fun experiences of my Scouting career.”

Jack H., South Texas Council
