Button Gwinnett District Outdoor
Leader Training
Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation for Cub Scout
Leaders (BALOO)
At least one BALOO
trained adult must plan & attend all Pack overnight activities.
This is the basic
introduction to camping and the outdoors, techniques and procedures for
planning a safe camping experience for Cub Packs. It’s a full one day
class (primarily outdoors) specific for Cub Scout leaders and
parents. It is a requirement for at least one person in each Pack to
have this training to plan and attend ANY and all overnight activities

several certified BALOO leaders, than risk disappointment by having to
cancel your outing.
