BALOO consists of an online pre-course training (my.scouting.org) and this 1 ½ day training.
The BALOO training sessions include hands-on demonstration of the why and how of Cub Scout camping -- planning, equipment, fire safety, stoves, and lanterns, first aid and sanitation, nature hikes and games, meal preparation, overnight campsite setup and selection, and an evening campfire program.
The key point of BALOO training is "Keep It Simple." Remember, the overnight is an entry-level outdoor experience for the first-time Cub Scout camper. All arrangements -- sleeping, cooking, and program -- should be geared to Cub Scout-age boys and girls.
