May 4, 2024 VERT Team Training will be the first CRCC Leadership Seminar
The VERT team will meet at the Picnic/bathroom area in Div 1 at 8:30 am and then make its way to the start location for 9:00 am.
A couple of spots are open, please email the Board if you’d like to join. (The VET Team Training is limited to 12 participants.)
If there is high demand, we will hold another Team Leadership Training later in the season.
Objectives: Good leadership skills are essential for any organization, association or community to prosper. The CRCC will benefit greatly from each additional member who gains understanding of leadership principles in regard to their own individual strengths and weaknesses as a leader. Everyone can be a leader in some way.
Cost: Free
About the organizer: Jeff Huntington has logged over 80 weeks as a field instructor for the National Outdoor Leadership School between 2014 and 2021. As a field instructor he had the privilege of teaching technical mountaineering and leadership skills on extended expeditions in remote parts of Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Utah, and Chile. He has been a park member since 2011 and loves spending time in the backcountry of the North Cascades.
Details: This seminar will be held entirely outdoors and require active participation. Dress prepared for the weather and bring extra layers, raincoat etc. Wear sturdy walking shoes or hiking boots. We will not be walking far but we will be on trails to get down to the river and be spending most of our time away from vehicles and restrooms. Other things to bring: small daypack with snacks, water bottle/thermos, trekking poles (optional), notepad and pen, sack lunch (optional). The seminar will conclude with lunch as a group by the river.
Come join fellow park members for a fun and informative morning of leadership skills development. This seminar will focus on teaching abstract leadership topics in an active and engaging way. You will learn the proven 4-7-1 model of leadership which explores leadership roles, skills and styles. We will learn about communication, decision making, self-awareness and more. All skills are transferable to the worlds of business, family, education and government.
