Boy Scout Outdoor Leader Training
This part of the course offers all of the skills necessary for the outdoor portion of the Scouting program. The course runs from Saturday morning to Sunday noon and is a must for those who want to learn more about cooking, camping, woods tools, fire building, etc. This course also stresses the patrol method and how a troop operates in the outdoors. This course is necessary to be a fully trained Boy Scout Leader, but all adult leaders are welcomed to take this course.
Outdoor Webelos Leader Training (OWL)
The outdoor activity pins are the most exciting for the Webelos Scouts to earn. Many adult leaders, however, are not well-versed in the skills needed to teach these activities. This course takes you through the different pins and helps you to understand and practice some of the skills that you will need. This course runs overnight from Saturday morning until Sunday noon.
Basic Adult Outdoor Orientation (BALOO)
A one-day training event that introduces leaders and parents to the skills needed to plan and conduct pack outdoor activities, particularly pack camping. Participants who complete this training course will understand the focus of the Cub Scout level of the BSA outdoor program, gain the skills needed to plan and carry out a successful Cub Scout-level overnight activity, and learn more about the resources available from the BSA for carrying out this activity. This training is required for any adult who is in charge of planning a pack campout.
