Cub Scouts are boys that are 7-10 years old or are in Grades 1-5. Cub Scouts typically meet once a week and are in dens with boys their own age. For over 80 years, Cub Scouts have been having the time of their lives making new friends and learning new things in an environment designed to help them succeed. With the help of an adult leader, boys will build their own pinewood derby car, learn how to roast the perfect marshmallow, visit new places and learn about their community. You son will LOVE being a Cub Scout and you will LOVE seeing his confidence and self esteem build. |
