Pack 496 McKinney, TX
Girls & Boys Ages K-5th
Our Cub Scouts meet at least once a month in grade specific dens and once a month in a combined K-5th grade Pack meeting. We are accepting both boys and girls and are the primary unit for Minshew, McClure, and Glen Oaks Elementary.
Do Your Best. Have Fun Doing It.
Our Cub Scouts learn outdoor skills, safety, we go hiking and camping with our families, build and race pinewood derby cars, serve our community, and much more. Scouting is a great way to make new friends and share exciting adventures together.
Connect with your kids. Support our Pack.
Parent volunteers make the Cub Scout program work and are essential for youth to have a great Scouting experience! At Pack 496 we believe every Scout needs a trained leader and volunteering is the best way to model the Scout Oath and Scout Law.

With Scoutbook, it's easy for youth and parents to track advancement and stay connected to their unit. The Scouting app was built to view existing advancement data strait from Scoutbook into a fun and easy-to-use interface. The Scouting app is available for download on Apple and Android devices. For more advanced advancement entry and leadership tools you may use the desktop version.
Scouting & Popcorn!
Popcorn sales is a fantastic way for our Scouts to learn about setting goals, persuasion skills, perseverance, and of course math skills! It is also a money generator for our Pack. The money earned goes towards more and better adventures, making for a well rounded Scouting experience. Without this fundraising effort we wouldn't have a Pack at all so it's important for all of us to put our salesmanship skills to work!
