BSA

The Cub Scouting Program cub scouts

Cub Scouting is for boys in the first through fifth grades, or 7 to 10 years of age. Boys who are older than 10, or who have completed the fifth grade, can no longer join Cub Scouting.

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 at the weekly den meetings and the monthly pack meetings.

Since its beginning Cub Scouts has been a fun and educational experience concerned with values. It provides a positive place where boys can enjoy safe, wholesome activities. Cub Scouting focuses on building character, improving physical fitness, teaching practical skills, and developing a spirit of community service.

As a program for the entire family, Cub Scouting can help families teach their children a wholesome system of values and beliefs while building and strengthening relationships among family members.

Apart from the fun and excitement of Cub Scouting activities the boys learn core values. The Cub Scout Promise, The Law Of The Pack, and the Cub Scout Sign, The Handshake, The Motto, and The Salute all teach good citizenship, duty to God, duty to family, and contribute to a boy's sense of belonging.
