NYLT Vision Patch
Developing Your Personal Vision
Steps to Completing Your NYLT Vision
- Brainstorm ideas - during the course.
- Discuss ideas with your troop guide- during the course.
- Once you develop a vision that your troop guide approves, create your first draft vision, goals, and plans. Your vision should have at least three goals with a plan for each goal. It should take between two and ten months to complete - during the course.
- Get written vision approved by your troop guide - during the course.
- Seek approval from an approved NYLT staff member - during the course.
- Make revisions as necessary - during the course.
- After approval, you may begin your vision back home. You should have your vision approved before the last day of the course.
- Once you have completed your vision, have your unit leader (scoutmaster, crew advisor, skipper) sign off on the handbook page.
- Email NYLT Vision Patch stating that you have completed your vision. Include scanned copies of the handbook pages that contain your vision, goals, and unit leader’s signature.
- Within one week, you should receive a response, and your gold bordered NYLT patch will be mailed to you.
You must complete your vision within one year from the end of your NYLT course to receive recognition.
