September 30 - Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO)

Hi all!
Each year our scouting pack has the opportunity to include several overnight outdoor camping activities.  However, we need more trained leaders.  Would you be interested in helping out? 

Earn a BALOO certification and lead the way!

This certification:
* Allows us to camp in places other than the Boy Scout camping facilities in our area
* Includes an introduction to outdoor camping skills
* Trains BSA rules and policies to be followed on any Cub Scout campout

Who should attend BALOO? This training is for anyone, leaders and parents, who will be involved in planning or implementing a pack-level Cub Scout overnight event that includes camping. 

Thanks in advance for leading our boys by example!
