Cub Scouts are boys and girls aged 8-10 years. They are curious about exploring the world around them. Youth do a little bit of everything from camping and hiking to community projects and environmental stewardship programs. Cub Scouts is about having fun, meeting new friends and developing self-confidence.
A Cub Scout Section is called a “Pack” and youth within a Pack are organized into smaller teams called “Lairs”. The motto for Cub Scouts is: Do Your Best and Cub Scouts are encouraged to try new and exciting activities.
Cub Scout Motto: Do your best
Cub Scout Law: The Cub respects the Old Wolf; The Cub respects himself/herself.
Cub Scout Promise: I promise to do my best; To love and serve God; To do my duty to the King; To keep the law of the Wolf Cub Pack; And to do a good turn for somebody every day. OR I promise to do my best; To be true to myself; To do my duty to my country; To keep the law of the Wolf Cub Pack; And to do a good turn for somebody every day.
Camping
Cubs will have a chance to attend at least 1 virtual at home camp per year where they will interact online with their Scouters and peers, while completing specific activities, hikes and other events with their family. They will also have an opportunity to camp in-person at a summer composite camp.
Kub Kar Competition
Kub Kar Races take place mid to late February or March. All youth will receive a car kit. Time for designing the Kar will be given at a meeting. Depending on the tools available at home for each youth, help will be provided to shape the vehicle. Time will then be given in a meeting or two in order to decorate the Kar. We will then have an opportunity to race the kars in-person. Travelling may be required, but we will find the closest races available to each of your home locations.
Fundraising
Cub Scouts are encouraged to do their best to help with our fundraisers throughout the year. This helps keep costs as low as possible and enable us to book special virtual meetings and other items with extra costs. In-person camp costs are in addition to previous funds and fees collected and your support in fundraising will help lesson these costs.
