We have five dens, Tiger, Wolf, Bear, Webelos I and Webelos II. We are proud to have fully trained, youth protection trained adult volunteers working with approximately 60 young men in our organization, ranging from first through fifth grade.

Cub Scouts will encourage your son to try new things, practice teamwork, and continue to build confidence and self-esteem while he earns recognition and a sense of personal achievement for the new skills he acquires. We will search out new activities, discover new things, and share them with others. This "Search, Discover, and Share" concept is what Cub Scouts is built on.


Cub Scouting means "doing."

Everything in Cub Scouting is designed to have the boys doing things.

Activities are used to achieve the aims of Scouting—citizenship training, character development, and personal fitness. Many of the activities happen right in the den and pack. The most important are the den meetings and the monthly pack meetings.

 

Apart from the fun and excitement of Cub Scout activities, the Cub Scout Promise, the Law of the Pack, and the Cub Scout sign, handshake, motto, and salute all teach good citizenship and contribute to a boy's sense of belonging.
