What is Cub Scouting?
Cub Scouting is a year-round program designed for girls and boys in kindergarten through 5th grades. The program emphasizes shared leadership, learning about the community, citizenship training, and personal fitness. Most of all, it emphasizes fun.
How Does it Work?
How Does it Work?
The program is run by parent volunteers who are supported by a great network of training, program development, and materials provided by the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). The Pack is made up of Dens, which are groups of girls and boys in the same grade. The Dens stay together as the Cubs grow older, progressing through each year of the ranks within Cub Scouts.
