When do you meet?
Sundays from 4:30 - 6 is our typical meeting time.
Where do you meet?
Either the senior center or the family room at the Levine Jewish Community Center. Weather permitting, many of our dens will meet outside to take advantage of the great outdoors around the J.
How often do you meet?
2-3 Sundays a month. Check the Google calendar as we try to keep it up to date.
Do you accept girls into your pack?
Yes! We are happy to welcome girls into Pack 163. We have a couple of leaders lined up, but the strength and longevity of the girls dens in scouting will depend on having women willing to step in as assistant den leaders.
What ages does Cub Scouts serve?
Cub Scouts serves boys in kindergarten through 5th grade (when they transition to Boy Scouts)
Kindergarteners are Lion
1st graders are Tigers
2nd graders are Wolves
3rd Graders are Bears
4th and 5th Graders are Weblos
How much does it cost?
We charge $65 dues in the Fall and Spring (payable by check or credit card)
If the cost of scouting is prohibiting your son from joining, please approach the Cubmaster or Pack Committee Chair about alternative arrangements. We never want a boy to be turned away from scouting based on finances.

Pack 163 T-shirt
all advancement loops and badges
Does my son/daughter need a uniform?

Cub Scout Shirt
Belt (for advancement loops)
Neckerchief for their den level
Note that some "hand me down" shirt and neckerchiefs may be available in the dens

Do I need to stay for the meetings?
Generally, yes. Cub Scouting is meant as an experience shared between the scout and an adult partner (parent, grandparent, older sibling, family friend, etc.). That adult can vary on occasion and we are understanding if you have boys in two different dens, but in general we'd like you to be present (or at least proximate) for meetings.
