Den Activities

Pack Organization & Meeting Times

• The "Pack" includes all the scouts from Kindergarten through 5th grade.  The Pack meets as a whole roughly once per month; usually on Thursday evenings or Sunday afternoons, depending on the event.

• A "Den" is a subgroup of the Pack with about ~5-10 members of the same age group.  Each Den has its own meetings about once a month (usually on weekends), as scheduled by the Den's adult Den Leader.

• The Pack is run entirely by volunteers.  There is an expectation that each family contribute to running a coupe events, or taking on a leadership role, which is a great way to demonstrate to our scouts how to be a good citizen and how to be leader.
