For any Scout Parent — especially if you want to become an Adult Volunteer — the first thing you need to do — even before filling out a BSA Adult Volunteer Application — is to take Youth Protection training at myscouting.scouting.org, the BSA’s online training center.
Once you take Youth Protection, you can apply to be an Adult Volunteer and do other training, including a number of online units.
Our goal at Pack 46 is to get EVERY parent to take the Youth Protection training.
When: Saturday, Sept. 11, TIME TBD
This training is available online at myscouting.scouting.org, also, but doing it in person allows you to meet leaders from other packs and discuss topics further.

Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) is a one-day training event, presented by the council, that introduces Cub Scout leaders and parents to the skills needed to plan and conduct pack outdoor activities, particularly pack camping. The pack has to have at least one BALOO-trained adult leader on any camping trip.
