Why Join? Scouting reinforces the skills and values we want our sons to learn while they're having fun. Education
Scouting is designed to promote socially acceptable behavior while giving our young boys the skills and knowledge they need to make wise decisions. Scouts, families and communities help their education in: - Physical and mental health
- Environmental stewardship
- Good Citizenship
- Setting and achieving goals
- Helping others in need
- Fighting child abuse and substance abuse
- Career preparation and education
Leadership Skills
Scouting teaches our young boys the skills that help prepare them for a lifetime of ethical leadership Values
Research conducted by Louis Harris & Associates showed that when a random sample of Scouts was asked what Scouting had taught them, almost nine out of ten responded that Scouting helped them: - Take better care of the environment (89%)
- Get along with others (88%)
- Always give your best effort (87%)
- Have confidence in yourself (87%)
- Set goals for yourself (87%)
- Care for other people (86%)
- Treat other people with respect (86%)
In addition, Scouts were found to be more likely to: - Assume leadership roles in clubs and school organizations
- Put the needs of others before themselves
- Make the most ethical, not necessarily easiest, decisions
- Value education and the environment
Scouting is Fun!
Cub Scouts participate in both pack-wide activities as well as numerous den-level activities. Typical pack activities during the year have included overnight camping, community clean-up, family activities, the popcorn fundraising, and the exciting pinewood derby. How do I Join?

How to Join? It's never too late to join Cub Scouts! If you have a boy in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade you can always sign up for Cub Scouts. What does it cost? Registration for membership in the Pack is $35.00 for Tigers and $50.00 for all other scouts. There may be den dues in addition to membership fees. The Pack registration fee pays for registration with the Boy Scouts of America, unit insurance, and helps to pay for the awards and supplies for each boy. Boys must complete a registration form for the Boy Scouts of America. Contact Patty Kuehl to register. Depending on the activities, Den Leaders may ask for an activity fee to cover the costs associated with the particular activity. This may include craft supply fees, admission fees, or the like. These will be kept to a minimal and will be announced ahead of time. Some Pack events may also require a nominal activity fee. Family events are usually the responsibility of those who choose to participate. What do I need? For more information about what you need after you join the Pack please select the What do I need? link above.
