The Tres Ranchos District routinely held a scout skills training day as a session of Acorn Training. When National shortened the Acorn Training and eliminated the skills day we found that the need was still there for this kind of basic training. We now hold an activity once or twice each year where basic scout skills are taught to new leaders. They learn basic lashings, first aid presentation techniques, dutch oven cooking, orienteering, and pioneering skills. It is held at the Bay Trees Park in Castro Valley. For dates and additional information see the district calendar , flyers or contact the district Training Chairman.
