5. Getting Started
Getting Started
When is a good time to get started?
You can become a scout at anytime. Just contact our Cubmaster or the Den Leader in your age group - or, just show up at one of our meetings.
When do we meet?
Pack Meetings (when all of our scouts, K-5th grade, get together in the same place - with the Cubmaster) are normally held on the second or third Sunday of each month.
Den Meetings (when just one age group meets - with the Den Leader) are normally held once a month and when there are specific outings.
To verify meeting times, you can check the calendar here.
What is the Cost of Joining?
First - don't let the cost scare you off. It's not that expensive and our Pack is able to assist if you need help. The person to see about assistance is the Committee Chair. This will be kept between you and them but you can tend to that later.
Second - The annual fee is under $80. A new uniform runs around $33 but the shirt is good for several years (buy it big). The pack provides the neckerchief and neckerchief slide.
We are not worried about the fees being paid up front. We can work with you. Scouting is actually quite reasonable considering all that your child will be doing throughout the year. Don't let the cost get in the way of your decision.
