Dens

What to Expect at Den Meetings

Cub Scout Pack 9 meets weekly on Tuesday nights at the Church of St Luke & St Peter in the Canoe Creek area. At each meeting, we break up into Dens for Grade-level activities and learnings. Scouts learn practical skills such as basic first aid, cooking a balanced meal and working with tools to build things. They learn about and experience out door camping, engage in outdoor sports and activities like hiking and outdoor games. Cub Scouts learn the importance of duty to God and country and what it means to be a good citizen in the community.

Scouts earn badges and advancements each month as they go through the program.

The Cub Scout Program in St. Cloud encourages boys and girls grades K - 5 to be helpful to others and to always do their best. Scouting values are ingrained in the Scout Oath and Scout Law and teaches kids to be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent.

Cub Scouts take part in a wide range of activities such as games, projects, skits, songs, outdoor activities such as camping and hiking, trips, and service projects. These activities foster personal character development, as well as achievement, leadership, and family and community involvement.

Cub Scouts Break Out Into Grade Level Dens

In your Cub Scout Den, Scouts engage in practical earning programs specifically tailored toward their grade level. As your Scout advances through the Cub Scout program, the badges and achievements become more challenging and rewarding. Scouts acquire fundamental safety knowledge such as First Aid, food preparation, and what to pack for outdoor trips and adventures. The overall scouting program incorporates leadership principles, good citizenship and physical fitness.
