Reborn; Sep 2015 to go National, co-ed scouting program. Formally known as Guardians of Indiana Leadership Academy (GILA) which was started in 2007.
Venturing Crew 270 formerly known as Guardians of Indiana Leadership Academy (GILA). Our vision of going National is now on a quick glide path of success. We are no longer limited to just one high school. GILA started in 2007 and has been so successful it started up similar programs in SHS, PMHS, RHS, and WCHS. Crew 270 meets every Tues, some Saturdays, and other days depending on events or traini
ng needed including over the summer and breaks. We will help identify and enhance leadership, social, and life skills through peer and adult mentoring. Training to instill discipline, loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, personal courage, and other values. Training will include physical fitness, marching, map reading, personal finance, hygiene, weight loss, sign language, limited driving, marksmanship/archery, and much more. The youth are primarily in charge of their own program by way of discussing/voting. They will be proactive within the community. There are training and events such as CERT = Community Emergency Response Team, Fall Ball, Food Toy and School supply drive, community clean up and more. Our leaders have real scouting and military experience, real integrity, and have 0 tolerance to drama. Guest speakers/trainers are welcome to observe & participate such as parents, teachers, etc. Contributions to include gift-in-kind (boots, workout equip., etc) are always welcome.
