Cub Scouting

Cub Scouts do fun things with other kids!  They get to wear a cool uniform, go places and see     things.  They play all kinds of sports and build things, like race cars, rockets and bird houses.  Want to learn a secret code?  Want to learn about wild animals? Go Cub Scouting!

In short, Scouting is a youth organization that uses a fun program to promote character development, citizenship training, and mental and physical fitness for every member.

The Boy Scouts of America makes Scouting available to our nation's youth by chartering community organizations to operate cub scout packs, Boy Scout troops, Varsity Scout Teams, and Explorer Posts.  The chartered organization must provide an adequate and safe meeting place and capable adult leadership, and must adhere to the principles and policies of the BSA.  The BSA local Council provides unit leader training, program ideas, camping facilities, literature, and professional guidance for volunteer leaders.

Scouting adult volunteers provide leadership at the unit, district, council and national levels.  Many are parents of scouts and many of them entered scouting as youth members themselves.
