Scouters Are Brave. Always Willing To Go On A New Adventure Or To Undertake A New Task. The SLC In Dubai Will Give You The Tools To Do Just That!
The 2024 Scouting Leadership Conference (SLC) will be held over the October 25-27th weekend at The American School of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. The Scouting Leadership Conference (SLC) training event for adult and youth leaders offered by the Transatlantic Council is designed to supplement the educational experience of any Scout leader.
SLC 2024 is open to all Scout Leaders, Youth Leaders, Chartered Organizations, and parents within the Transatlantic Council. The classes offered provide skills for first-time leaders to experienced leaders.
This year discussions will range from how to keep the fun in Scouting to all the “need to know” while Scouting in the overseas environment. Courses will be held on Saturday the 26th, with topics focusing on support of Cub Scouting, Scouts BSA, Venturing, and other Scouting programs. There are offerings for both adult leaders and youth leaders. Refer to the listing of class offerings and schedule on the registration page to see what is being offered.
We look forward to seeing everyone at the Scouting Leadership Conference in October.
After SLC classes are done, join us at the Council Recognition Dinner on Saturday evening. In addition to other awards, the highlight of the evening will be the presentation of the Silver Beaver Awards. This is the highest award that a local council can bestow for volunteer service within the council and to the Boy Scouts of America. Scout uniform or casual business dress is appropriate attire. The event is held offsite at the Media Rotana hotel which is a short walk from the American School of Dubai.
FAMILIES
While you are attending SLC, please consider bringing the rest of the family to explore the environs of the Dubai area. Take time to enjoy and see the sights of what the area has to offer. The SLC committee is putting together possible outings for family members who are not attending the seminar for Friday night and Sunday morning.
LODGING
We will reserve a block of rooms at the Media Rotana Hotel for those who wish to stay there. (This is the same hotel where the Council Recognition Dinner will be held.) The room rate for a double is approximately $167 per night. Individual guests may contact the hotel by sending an email to groups.media@rotana.com to facilitate booking their own room. There are also numerous other hotels in the vicinity that may offer rates and accommodations to fit your needs if you so desire.
