Tour Permit FAQ's
Q. Does the BALOO training that is listed in the activity training matrix have an expiration?
A. BALOO is a locally administered course that does not have an expiration date. Repeating the course biannually is not a requirement at this time. Insert the date you took BALOO into the training matrix.
Q. What are the Paddlecraft Safety and Swimming and Water Rescue courses that are listed on the training matrix?
A. Paddlecraft Safety and Swimming and Water Rescue are new training programs being developed by the Aquatics Task Force. Support material, when available, will be provided to the local councils. The courses have been added to the training matrix to help you “Be Prepared.” In the meantime, please look through the Aquatics Supervision Guide Book, No. 34346, available through www.Scoutstuff.org .
Q. Is Planning and Preparing for Hazardous Weather Training required for all tours as of January 1, 2009?
A. Yes, it is required for all tours, including local and national, Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Venturing.
Q. When do I need to complete a tour permit ?
A. Your local council determines when a tour permit is required for trips under 500 miles or local activity. However, the tour permit is an excellent planning tool that should be included in preparation for all activities, even those not requiring it. It guides a tour leader through itineraries, travel arrangement, two-deep leadership, qualifications of supervision, and transportation.
Q. What should we use for permission from parents?
A. The Activity Consent Form and Approval by Parents or Guardian is an appropriate resource.
Q. Do I need anything else if we are going on a discovery flight?
A. Yes, please complete the Flying Permit along with an Activity Consent Form and Approval by Parents or Guardian (for each participant).

BSA Formally Launches Inventing Merit Badge
The Boy Scouts of America, in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology formally launched the Inventing Merit Badge.
This new, exciting merit badge is now available for all scouts to earn. * Requirements are available at:
http://www.scouting.org/sitecore/content/Home/BoyScouts/AdvancementandAwards/MeritBadges/mb-inventing.aspx
* The first printing of the merit badge pamphlet has been shipped to local council service centers.
As part of the development and pretesting of the Inventing merit badge, thirty-eight scouts from six Boston area councils completed the merit badge requirements and were awarded their badges. Additionally two patent-holding Distinguished Eagles with connections to MIT were presented commemorative merit badges for their past inventive activities and ongoing support of Scouting.

News & Tidbits
Weather INLAND EMPIRE – The summer solstice arrives early Monday morning. It’s the longest day of the year with the shortest nights. More direct sunlight usually means hotter weather. Rob Krohn at the Riverside weather office says the longer days of spring produced only one heat wave.
“Temperatures were well below normal. The summer forecast calls for near-normal temperatures and rainfall with much less night and morning low clouds and fog.”
Summer usually produces about thirty, 100-degree days in the Riverside-San Bernardino area. But, September can sometimes be the hottest month of the year. So far, there have been no triple-digit days. Thanks to Inland News Today Story Date: June 20, 2010 | Cub Camp Kudos to Old Baldy District Day Camp Director Laura French! 187 cub scout campers and over 70 adult volunteer leaders attended day camp! |
