How Much Does it Cost?

For Pack 558 there are currently no monthly Dues.  Usually, most events are paid in part or full from Pack Fundraising.  COVID- put a squash on fundraising last year and this year, so all future events will be paid for by families.  The Pack will pay for ALL Awards and recognitions each Scout earns.  We are looking at other fundraisers that the scouts can do and we will discuss them at meetings.

New Scouts

If you are new to Pack 558 (and cub scouts), the cost is $85 national fee, $48 council fee (this will cover you till the previous month of joining next year - join in September registered till next August).  Additional fees are:

– Your son’s Class B shirt ($15)

– A subscription to Boys Life Magazine ($15) - not required by Highly Recommended

Dues

Pack 558 collects a $10 a month fee from each scout to help with the purchase of awards and recognitions that the scouts earn.  If this fee is an issue please discuss with John Ochs (Cubmaster) or Alecia George (Chartered Org. Rep.) - we don't want this to be a reason a scout doesn't join or continue with scouting.

New Adults

If you are new to Pack 558 (and cub scouts), the cost is $65 national fee (this will cover you till the previous month of joining next year - join in September registered till next August).  Additional fees are:

– Your Class B shirt ($15)

Recharter Fees (due in 12 months)

Annual recharter fees are $85 plus a $48 fee to Council. The total fee for recharter is $133.

In addition to the Pack Registration Fee’s, each Den leader may periodically collect nominal Den dues to help support the cost of Den projects and activities throughout the year. Your Cub Scout’s Den leader will clarify the exact amount, how and when it is to be paid. Typically the projects and crafts are part of the Den’s Rank Requirements and Electives.
