How Cub Scouting Works
Scouting is Family Oriented
Activities are intended for the whole family, and all are welcome to participate.
You work with your Scout on their various award requirements, both at home and during meetings.
Many skills they will learn are family oriented.
A parent or guardian is required to attend all events with their Scout. This includes our monthly meetings and various outings and special events.
Your Scout is a member of a Cub Scout Pack
The “pack” consists of all the dens and other leaders.
The pack meets once a month – all Cub Scout families are invited and encouraged to attend.
The Cubmaster and Assistant Cubmasters lead the monthly pack meeting.
Pack meetings have games, skits, songs, special guests, ceremonies and presentations of awards that the Scouts have earned recently.
A parent or guardian for each Scout is expected to attend each Pack meeting
Your Scout is a member of a Cub Scout Den
Dens are organized by grade level.
Each Den generally meets once per month.
The Den is led by a Den Leader (parent volunteer) and Assistant Den Leader (parent volunteer).
During Den Meeting, Scouts will work on advancement requirements for their next rank.
Den meetings also have games, crafts, songs, ceremonies, and lots of fun.
A parent or guardian for each Scout is expected to attend each Den meeting.
The pack is run by a Pack Committee (group of parent volunteers).
The committee is made up of a Cubmaster, Asst. Cubmaster, Committee Chair, Treasurer, Den Leaders, Event Chairs and many other positions.
The committee generally meets once a month. All leaders and interested parents are encouraged to attend.
The committee plans events, organizes volunteers and sets the agenda for the coming year.
