Outdoor Training is a two part training.  Part A is a planning class.  Part B is a ‘hands-on’ training at a campsite where you will set up the campsite, cook outdoors, and pack up.

Part A: Friday, October 20, 2017 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Part B: Saturday, October 21, 2017 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Part A (Friday) is an evening of discussion and preparation for Part B (Saturday) which is the hands-on training.  You must complete both in this order with the same trainers.  

Completion of the Council's Outdoor Training by one of the adults in a troop is required before the troop may participate in Fire building, cookouts, tent camping at public or Girl Scout facilities, or for participation in Girl Scout events such as Service Unit camp-outs and Kaleidoscope, etc. Having more than one trained person per troop is STRONGLY recommended.
