Cub Scouting Means “DOING!”

The Den

A Cub Scout Pack is divided into small groups of about 6–8 children called dens, who meet at least twice a month under the direction of adult Den Leaders. Dens are organized by grade level, giving scouts the chance to learn and grow with peers their own age.

Den meeting activities are planned around monthly themes and include games, handicrafts, hikes, outdoor fun, and practicing for Pack meetings. The den structure allows children to build close friendships and engage in hands-on activities.

Den Structure by Grade:

  • Lion Cubs — Kindergarten
  • Tiger Dens — 1st grade
  • Wolf Dens — 2nd grade
  • Bear Dens — 3rd grade
  • Webelos Dens — 4th/5th grades

The Pack

Pack 94 is made up of several dens and includes not just the scouts, but also their families and leaders. The Pack meets monthly (4th Thursday) with Cub Scouts, leaders, parents, and family members attending. Pack meetings are the highlight of each month — a time to recognize scouts, celebrate achievements, and build community.

Beyond regular meetings, the Pack sponsors special projects including community service, outdoor activities, fundraisers, and fun competitions like the Pinewood Derby and Rain Gutter Regatta.

The Pack Committee is a group of adult volunteers who plan the program and manage operations. Committee meetings are monthly and open to any interested parent.
