BALOO (Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation) Training

Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) is a one-day training event that introduces leaders and parents to the skills needed to plan and conduct pack outdoor activities, particularly pack camping.

This training is required for any adult who is in charge of planning a pack campout. At BALOO, you will get helpful outdoor cooking tips with some recipes to boot. You will be shown an ideal campsite. You will play games to take back with you to your units. You will learn about BSA Camping Policies. You will learn about water safety and trainings you will have to take to be able to have water activities with your unit. Ultimately, you will walk away with a better understanding on how to have a successful outdoor program for your unit. And after all that, towards the end of the day, we will offer Range Master Training, for anyone out there that would like to learn how to become a Range Master. Range Master is an optional training.

There is an attendance fee for this training. It covers the food and the materials you will receive.
