To join the Cub Scouts, each Scout must pay dues to the National and Council Boy Scouts of America, as well as pay Pack Dues for Pack 654. Annual Pack Dues cover operating expenses such as Scout belt loops, Scout rank badges, Pack 654 patches for new Scouts, leader registration, credit card fees, and technology costs.
After your first year, your Scout can earn their own way and pay these dues and other Scout expenses using their Scout Account. When your Scout participates in our Money Earning Projects, a portion of the funds he or she makes will be earmarked for their use. The funds from a Scout Account may be directed by the scout or their parents to defray scouting expenses such as dues, camping fees, or other scouting-related fees. See our Pack Handbook for more details.
The costs for new Scouts will change over the course of the Pack year:
