Cub Scouting is a year-round program uniquely designed to meet the needs of young boys and their parents. The program offers fun and challenging activities that promote character development and physical fitness. Service projects, ceremonies, games, and other activities guide boys through the core values and give them a sense of personal achievement. Through positive peer group interaction and parental guidance, boys also learn honesty, bravery, and respect.
These are the lessons that are largely absent from their normal everyday curriculum and which are an essential component to growing up and positively contributing to their communities. Many of the lessons the boys will learn in Scouting will be carried with them well into their adult lives.
Remember, Scouting is a Family program focused on your son and your personal involvement is an essential part of Cub Scouting. Through interaction between parents, leaders, and friends, boys learn citizenship, compassion, and courage. This family- and community-centered approach to learning means that Cub Scouting is truly time well spent.
