IOLS/WOLF/BALOO Training at PBSR
A combined Outdoor Leadership Skills course is being offered April 23rd and 24th at PBSR. This is a great opportunity for Boy Scout Leaders, Webelos Leaders, Bear Leaders, Cubmasters, Committee Members, and assistant leaders to experience Outdoor Leadership Training. It is also a great opportunity for Boy Scout Leaders and Cub Leaders to interact and build unit relationships that will enhance the scouting program for both units. There are three great courses being offered at one fabulous location!
Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Skills (IOLS) is designed for Boy Scout Leaders focusing on the outdoor skills needed for the Tenderfoot through First Class ranks. This is the required outdoor portion of Leader Specific Training for Scoutmasters and their assistants. This is also great supplemental training for Committee Members and Crew Advisors.
Outdoor Leaderships Skills for Webelos Leaders (WOLF) covers everything you need to know to take your den camping for a weekend. The fun way to learn it all -
tents, campsite selection, sleeping bags, pads, woods tools, menu planning, cooking hints, campfire fun, and safety concerns.
Looking for more fun and fellowship or don’t want to travel home on Saturday night? The option to stay Saturday night is also open with Sunday morning breakfast provided.
For WOLF participants staying over Saturday night, we will also be offering Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) on Sunday morning April 25th. BALOO provides the skills needed to plan and conduct pack outdoor activities. Don’t forget, the Local Tour Permit requires at least one member from every pack to be BALOO trained!
Planning on taking Wood Badge? Outdoor Leadership Training is a pre-requisite for Scoutmasters and Assistant Scoutmasters taking Wood Badge training.
Many boys leave the Scouting program because they didn’t receive the outdoor adventure they thought Scouting offered. Don't miss this outstanding opportunity to put the "out" in your unit's outdoor program. Applications for Outdoor Leadership Training are available now!
