What has anyone seen or experienced with spanish speaking (or any other foreign language) partcipants on a Wood Badge course? I am interested in what worked and how it worked.

I can't comment on the success or failure, or on the participants, but our council has run a Spanish Woodbadge course every year for the last few years.

I'm told that they organize the patrols to facilitate the language abilities of the participants. Some patrols are run entirely in Spanish, and others are for bilingual participants and some things are done in English.
