Cub Scouts experience the outdoors and explore new activities in a safe, family-oriented way. Cub Scouting is fun! No matter what grade you are in, kindergarten through 5th, it can be a blast. Do you like to learn by doing? This is just the place. You can learn to tie knots, set up a tent, and cook a meal on a campfire. Have you ever sent a secret code to a buddy? Built a birdhouse? Earn rewards f
or doing these things in Cub Scouts. CUB SCOUTS BELONG TO PACKS AND DENS
As a Cub Scout, you will be part of your own pack. The pack is divided into smaller groups called dens. Each den has about six to eight boys and girls. All of the Cub Scouts in your den are in the same grade and may even go to the same school. The Cub Scout pack belongs to a church, a school, or some other group of people in your community or neighborhood. This group makes sure your pack has good adult leaders, a place to meet, and exciting things to do. The group gets help from BSA, formerly known as Boy Scouts of America, which is part of Scouting around the world. CUB SCOUTS DO THINGS
As a Cub Scout you may go hiking, fishing, or shoot a bow and arrow. You might also build a pinewood derby car and race it on the track, build a sailboat and race it in the raingutter regatta, or build a spaceship and race it to the stars in the pack space derby. CUB SCOUTS EARN AWARDS
Each time you complete an accomplishment or learn a new skill, you will be rewarded. Sometimes the reward is a pin or a patch. Sometimes it is a smile on your parents' faces to see you grow and learn.
