the BSA's health and safety policies found in the Guide to Safe Scouting and
Youth Protection guidelines assures a positive experience for the pack, the Cub

responsible to a specific adult who is on the overnight. Adults giving
leadership to a pack overnighter must complete Basic Adult Leader Outdoor

trains participants to properly understand the importance of program intent,
Youth Protection guidelines, health and safety, site selection, age-appropriate
activities, and sufficient adult participation. BALOO is offered in
Lawrence on April, just in time for the Graduation
Weekend.<BR></DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
