We are glad your family is interested in Scouting and hope you and your child will enjoy the adventure with Cub Scout Pack 788!
Once a month, all Dens come together for a Pack Meeting. Our pack meetings are typically held the third Wednesday of each month, but may vary due to holidays. View our calendar for the most current schedule.
The Pack Meeting is a fun time for everyone. The Dens show off the projects they have been working on, teach/perform songs and skits, participate in the flag ceremony, collect hiking rewards, and receive belt loops and pins to mark the achievements they've earned since the last meeting. Pack meetings typically last an hour, and is a time for families to receive information on upcoming activities for the Pack, and share in the Scouting spirit.
Dens are organized by grade level and we tend to keep dens small, so there may be multiple dens within one grade level. Time is allotted within our pack meetings for dens to meet, however additional meetings and activities can be planned among den members. Den meetings provide scouts with opportunities to enjoy various planned activities, learn new skills, build relationships, and have fun. Many of the achievements required to advance in rank are done at Den meetings, so regular attendance is strongly encouraged!
Please keep in touch with your scout's Den Leader so that you will know what activities are taking place and can track the progress your child is making. Some of the achievements are worked together as a family beyond den meeting hours.
Then, scouts will work on the rank according to their grade level.
