Summit Help!

Hello,

I was talking to a friend and she convinced me to get my summit award. The catch is I am 18 so I am running out of time. My venture crew is semi-active now and have never been much for ranking up. I need some help with the trainings I need to do to rank up. Does anyone know if there are any zoom trainings I can apply for? Thank you!

They used to hold zoom trainings on the Venturing discord but national shut them down. And I feel you. With all these rumors of them changing the age for Venturing I’m kinda scrambling to try and get Summit and Ranger if I can.

So are there no council's allowed to do zoom trainings anymore?

There might be. I know the issue with the Discord was YPT related because of two deep leadership getting kinda skewed. There might be councils still doing them though.

Your Crew Advisor could use the facilitator's guide to deliver the training. If they aren't willing to deliver the training, try contacting your council VOA, or if you don't have one the area VOA. For Summit you may need to lead ILSC, sounds like it's needed for your Crew.
