This one-and-a-half day 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. 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.
 
 
** Course Pre-requisite **
 
Prior to taking the practical component, you must have completed the online component described in this manual. 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. Please print and bring with you to the weekend training the certificate for BALOO Course Summary course.
The online portion is available through the BSA LearnCenter. Log onto my.scouting.org and select the BSA Learn Center image on the right side of the home page.
