About Pack 703

In April 2002, an experiment was started in hopes of improving communication among scouts, pack leaders, parents and visitors, in the Pack 703 area. A web site was constructed and Pack703.org came into being. Since then, the experiment has proven a success, greatly improving intra-pack communication. Further, the value of the Internet to deliver quality Scouting related information is readily on display with links to local, state, national and world Scouting sites. This site, as well as all of our activities, operates with the safety and well being for our Cub Scouts as our first and foremost concern.  We never use the last names of any scouts on any of our pages.

 

What is Cub Scouting?

Since 1930, the Boy Scouts of America has helped younger boys through Cub Scouting. It is a year-round family program designed for boys who are in the first grade through fifth grade.

Membership

Cub Scouting members join a Cub Scout pack and are assigned to a den, usually a neighborhood group of six to eight boys. Tiger Cubs (first graders), Wolf Cub Scouts (second graders), Bear Cub Scouts (third graders), and Webelos Scouts (fourth and fifth graders) meet together in dens. Additionally, once a month all of the dens and family members gather for a pack meeting under the direction of a Cubmaster and pack committee. The committee includes parents of boys in the pack and members of the chartered organization.

Volunteer Leadership

Thousands of volunteer leaders, both men and women, are involved in the Cub Scout program. They serve in a variety of positions, as everything from unit leaders to pack committee chairmen, committee members, den leader coaches, and chartered organization representatives.

 Like other phases of the Scouting program, Cub Scouting is made available to groups having similar interests and goals, including professional organizations; government bodies; and religious, educational, civic, fraternal, business, labor, and citizens' groups. These "sponsors" are called chartered organizations. Each organization appoints one of its members as a chartered organization representative. The organization, through the pack committee, is responsible for providing leadership, the meeting place, and support materials for pack activities
