Here is a compilation of the Fall Training Dates offered in other districts, in case you have a conflict with any of the Great Plains District Training Dates. Please note that not all districts have posted their training information yet, and some do not conduct all the types of training offered in Great Plains. It is fine to train in whatever district you can, even if it is not your own district. Certain courses such as “This is Scouting” replace some of the previous training courses and can be taken on-line. If you have any questions, please contact Paul White at Scouting@D9Systems.com or 972-517-8483.
