About Cub Scouts
What is Cub Scouts?
Cub Scouting, established in 1930, is part of the worldwide Scouting program that aims to promote character development, citizenship training, personal fitness, and leadership skills to enable our youth to "be prepared for life".
Families with boys and girls in K-5th grade will join a small group of peers/Cub Scouts in the same grade level, known as a Den. In the den, Cub Scouts develop through age appropriate adventures, new skills and interests, practice sportsmanship and good citizenship, and learn to do their best, not just for themselves but for the den as well.
All dens, from kindergarten through fifth grade, make up a pack.
The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.
The Scout Oath
On my honor I will do my best,
To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.
The Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.
Cub Scout Motto
DO YOUR BEST
The Outdoor Code
As an American, I will do my best to –
Be clean in my outdoor manners.
Be careful with fire.
Be considerate in the outdoors.
Be conservation minded.
