Other Programs Using The White Stag Name
In 1967, Rex Hatch returned to the Crossroads of America Council after attending a pilot test of the JLT program at Philmont. He founded in 1972 a junior leader training, previously known as Silver Bars, which was initially based on the White Stag principles. It was later modified to follow the "National Youth Leadership Training Course syllabus." Another White Stag program is produced by the Hoosier Trails Council in Bloomington, Indiana based on the "National Youth Leadership Training Course syllabus." On the east coast, the Narragansett Council in Rhode Island has nicknamed their national NYLT program as "White Stag NYLT", which teaches "the concepts of what a leader must BE, what he must KNOW, and what he must DO"
These programs are produced by the local councils. They present the standardized, nationally mandated National Youth Leadership Training program. The non-profit White Stag Academy in Monterey, California sponsors Venture Crew 122, which develops and produces a summer camp program independent of the Boy Scout of America's nationally mandated junior leaders training program.

Famous quotes containing the words programs, white and/or stag:
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“The city of Washington is in some respects self-contained, and it is easy there to forget what the rest of the United States is thinking about. I count it a fortunate circumstance that almost all the windows of the White House and its offices open upon unoccupied spaces that stretch to the banks of the Potomac ... and that as I sit there I can constantly forget Washington and remember the United States.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“A stag of warrant, a stag, a stag,
A runnable stag, a kingly crop,
Brow, bay and tray and three on top,
A stag, a runnable stag.”
—John Davidson (1857–1909)
