- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 08:00 am (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: WHO - This training is for Cub Scout leaders who plan to organize a Cub Scout pack or den overnight camping activities.

WHY - Completion of this course is mandatory for a MINIMUM OF ONE adult on a Pack overnighter.

WHAT - is a one-and-a-half-day training course designed for adult leaders looking to add safe and fun camping experiences to their Pack program. This course provides the essential knowledge and hands-on skills needed to confidently lead Cub Scout outdoor activities.

BALOO training includes two required components — an online module followed by a practical, overnight outdoor session. Both must be completed in order for leaders to earn the “Trained” status and receive the official BALOO recognition patch.

1. Online Training Component

The online learning portion is available anytime through the BSA Learn Center at My.Scouting.org. Participants must complete this section before attending the in-person course.

The online modules are designed to build foundational knowledge and help maximize the hands-on learning experience during the practical session.

Participants must bring a printed or digital copy of their completion certificate to the in-person training.

2. Practical, Hands-On Component

The in-person portion is a 1.5-day, overnight outdoor training experience. During this session, leaders will learn essential Cub Scout outdoor program skills, including campsite setup, outdoor cooking, program planning, safety, and activities appropriate for Cub Scouts.

This training is ideal for Pack leaders who want to enhance their unit’s program with outdoor adventures and ensure they meet all Scouting America requirements for Cub Scout camping.
