What is Scouting?
Cub Scouting is an organized way for kids to go on adventures with their friends. Cub Scouts is organized into Dens and Packs. Each Grade makes up a Den and Dens make up the Pack. Scouts complete various age appropriate activities and adventures outlined as requirements in each Den level Handbook. Some activities are done with the Pack, Dens, or individually with a parent/adult. Dens work together to complete requirements. If all requirements are met by the end of the School Year, the Scout earns their Rank. Den Leaders and Pack Master help, but it is up to the parent and Scout to ensure rank requirements are completed.
Cub Scout Ranks are Lion (Kindergarten), Tiger (1st Grade); Wolf (2nd Grade); Bear (3rd Grade); Webelos (4th and 5th Grade).

- How are activities planned?
- Cub Scouting is Parent Led, the parent’s meetings are where most of the planning is done. Please try to attend each parent meeting.
- The goal is to allow for quality time with Parent and Scout, therefore it is expected that parents take an active role in their Scout’s activities and advancements.
- The Pack is run entirely by adult volunteers so parents are expected to assist and run various activities.
- Parents are expected to help plan and coordinate at least two events each year.
