The Introduction to Leadership Skills for Crews Course (ILSC) has been created to help Venturers learn and practice the attitudes and skills that good leaders demonstrate. The course is a series of lessons divided into three modules: Leading Self, Leading Others, and Leading Crews. The syllabus contains six and a half hours of instruction, but a course length may vary depending on facilitators’ choice of games, the content chosen for more extensive discussion, and the needs of the crew.

The Outer Banks of North Carolina have long been an alluring destination for travelers seeking stunning coastal landscapes, rich history, and a taste of adventure. Last year, a group of intrepid explorers from Crew 75 embarked on a thrilling journey to this remarkable region. From serene beaches to historic lighthouses, their trip was filled with unforgettable experiences and newfound appreciation for the beauty of North Carolina’s coastal wonderland.

As the Crew arrived on the Outer Banks, they were instantly captivated by the warm hospitality of the locals and the gentle sea breeze that welcomed them. With their cameras and spirits ready, they began their exploration on the wide, sandy beaches that stretched as far as the eye could see. From the tranquility of Carova Beach to the liveliness of Nags Head, each beach presented its unique charm, offering the perfect setting for relaxation and recreation.

Finally camping at the grand beach of Frisco in the Southern most point of the ocean.

The Outer Banks have a rich maritime history, and the Crew was eager to immerse themselves in its allure. They visited the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, which showcased artifacts and stories from the many shipwrecks that dot the coast. The crew was fascinated by tales of pirates, brave lighthouse keepers, and the heroic efforts of the United States Life-Saving Service.

Don’t forget the UFO museum!

One of the highlights of the Crew expedition was visiting the iconic lighthouses that guide ships along the treacherous coastline. They climbed the spiral stairs of the Bodie Island Lighthouse, capturing breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape from the top. At Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, they marveled at its historic significance, being the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States.

Adventure beckoned as the Crew ventured into the waters of the Outer Banks. From kayaking through serene marshlands to windsurfing and kiteboarding in the brisk ocean breeze, they found themselves surrounded by nature’s wonders. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore, in particular, provided the perfect playground for water enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

No visit to the Outer Banks would be complete without delving into the captivating mystery of the Lost Colony. At Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, the crew explored the remnants of England’s first attempt at establishing a colony in the New World. The story of the Lost Colony, where a group of settlers mysteriously disappeared, still intrigues historians and visitors to this day.

And then – there is Duck Donuts. Should we say more? We do it again in August. Join the adventure!
