Discover Cub Scouts

Cub Scouts is a program that serves boys and girls in grades K–5.

Your child will be a member of a den — a small group of kids of the same grade/age. Dens meet together to complete age-appropriate adventures. Dens advance through the Cub Scout ranks as they grow.

A pack is big group of multiple dens. Our whole pack meets together for fun activities.

Parents and adults help the pack operate — no previous Scouting experience is needed.

Why would parents want to join?

Scouting works in preparing youth for life in a world beyond school and sports. The ideals that Scouting teaches are timeless and help kids to build confidence and character. For more info, read The Scouting Edge: A Study of Ethics and Character in America.

Scouting America is committed to safety and youth protection. Youth with special needs are welcome; learn more at ablescouts.org/toolbox.

Why would kids want to join?

“Scouting is a game with a purpose.” However, we know that kids don't join Cub Scouts for character building. They join because it's fun, and they like learning new skills. While trying new things, your Scout will be making friends and creating family memories that last a lifetime.

Cub Scouts Adventures are fun, age-appropriate, and they safely challenge kids as they grow. By completing Adventures, Cub Scouts will earn recognition and make progress towards earning their badge of rank, which is worn on their uniform. The uniform shows both advancement progress and being part of a team.
