Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO)

This course is designed as an introduction to the Cub Scout outdoor program for leaders interested in adding a camping component to their Pack activities.  BALOO training consists of an online pre-requisite component in addition to an overnight hands-on practical section.  BSA's Cub Scout level camping policies will be taught along with the discovery of the necessary tools to help units carry out a successful camping experience.  Completion of this course is mandatory for a MINIMUM OF ONE adult on a PACK overnighter.  This is a one-and-a-half-day course - 8:00 AM Saturday until 12:00 PM on Sunday.

Prerequisites:  Prior to taking the practical component, participants must have completed the online component.  Both components, the online and the practical, must be completed in order to fulfill the "BALOO" Trained status.  In the event the online component is not completed prior to the practical, the trained status is withheld until both components are successfully completed.  The online portion is available through the BSA LearnCenter.  Log onto my.scouting.org and select the BSA LearnCenter image on the right side of the home page.
