Information for Potential Cub Scouts
Thank you for your interest in Cub Scouts, and for checking out Pack 351. We hope that this information answers your initial questions. If you have remaining questions, please ask! (contact info at the bottom of this page).
Who? Boys and Girls in Kindergarten through 5th grade. We recruit from Rheem Elementary Schools, and welcome other girls and boys from the neighborhood. Scouts may join at any grade level, and don’t need to “start at the beginning” since each grade starts a fresh new level/rank. Joining mid-year is not a problem either.
We encourage siblings to join in on the fun. Bring the whole family and friends to pack meetings when your scout has earned an award.
Parents/guardians are expected to participate and help out. Our group is organized and lead by parent volunteers. We need individuals to help with activities and to be uniformed leaders. Please complete a parent skills survey so we can best match your interest with roles which need to be filled. See the separate listing of the areas where help is needed.
What?
Cub Scouts helps to teach values through fun activities which are rewarded through rank advancement. Activities include games, crafts, sports, field trips, hiking, camping, Pinewood Derby, archery and community service.
Scouts are grouped by their grade level into dens of 5 to 10. There is at least one den per grade level, sometimes two if there are enough boys to warrant a split. Scouts usually stay with the same den as they change school grades and advance to the next rank level together.
The pack is a collection of all the dens, usually totaling 45 to 55 scouts. This interaction allows the scouts to see the fun that others are having and the awards they receive along the way.

The Pack
The larger group of all the scouts meets once a month, usually on the First Thursday at Rheem Elementary.
