Cub Scout Pack 247 is chartered by St. Mary's Parish Church in Wayne, Michigan. However, scouting is a non-sectarian organization, and we have boys and girls of many different cultures and backgrounds. Pack 247 is part of the Sunset District of the Great Lakes Field Service Council of the Boy Scouts of America.

We have a great program for boys and girls in Kindergarten through fifth grade. Most of our scouts attend the Wayne-Westland Community Schools (Taft-Galloway, Hoover, Roosevelt-Mcgrath, Schweitzer and Hicks), we gladly welcome any kids in the area who are interested in joining Cub Scouting. Our pack currently has about 20 scouts and 5 leaders.

Cub Scouting is a family-oriented program that instills values such as citizenship, teamwork, honesty, respect, responsibility, and fitness, while being a lot of fun! The philosophy of Pack 247 is that scouting should be a game with a purpose. We want the kids to have a great time, while teaching them something along the way. We also believe that an important part of scouting is giving back to the community, through community service projects.

Our Pack's activities this year have included camping, hiking, Pinewood Derby, Raingutter Regatta, sleeping overnight at the Toledo Zoo, and a trip on the Huron River in a Voyageur Canoe.
