Tiger Cubs

This program is for boys in the first grade ( or 7-years-old) and their adult partners. Boys and adults are members of a Tiger Cub den that usually meets twice a month for activities built around the Tiger Cub motto, "Search, Discover, Share." All of the adults share in the leadership of the den, with the guidance and support of the Tiger Cub den leader. Tiger Cub dens also take part in monthly pack meetings and other activities. Tiger Cub den activities are based on advancements and electives in the Tiger Cub Handbook

Cub Scouting

This program is for boys in the second and third grades (or who are 8 and 9-years-old). When a boy becomes a Cub Scout, he is assigned to a Cub Scout den. Den meetings are held each week under the leadership of an adult volunteer den leader, usually a parent of one of the boys in the den. There might also be an assistant den leader and a den chief (an older Boy Scout, Varsity Scout or Venturer) helping the den leader. All adult family members are expected to help when called upon to assist with den activities. At den meetings, the boys enjoy games, stunts, songs, crafts and ceremonies. Many of these activities are based on a theme for that month. Cub Scouts also take part in field trips, service projects and outdoor activities.

Webelos Scouting

This program is for boys in the fourth and fifth grades (or who are 10-years -old). These boys are members of a Webelos den. Their den meetings are held weekly, usually in the evenings or on a weekend, under the leadership of an adult volunteer Webelos den leader, usually a parent of one of the boys in the den. There might also be an assistant den leader and a den chief (an older Boy Scout, Varsity Scout or Venturer) helping the den leader. Instead of a monthly theme, the Webelos den program is built around one of the Webelos activity badges. This badges are part of the Webelos advancement program. Parent-son overnight camping is also an important part of the den's program. The Webelos program runs for about 18 months, after which the boys are encouraged to join a Boy Scout troop and continue their Scouting adventure.
