Let's Connect

  • Joining is easy! Simply click the “Join Now” button on our homepage, and you’ll be guided through the registration process. We’re excited to welcome new scouts and their families.

  • Dens are structured to provide age-appropriate activities. Lions (Kindergarten), Tigers (1st Grade), Wolves (2nd Grade), Bears (3rd Grade), and Webelos (4th & 5th Grade).

  • Den Leaders play a crucial role in guiding and supporting scouts within their age group (den). They lead den meetings, organize activities, and ensure a positive scouting experience.

  • Den meetings are typically held every week on Monday nights, with pack meetings held on the last Monday of the month. We also have exciting events and outings throughout the year including our main family camp outs on weekends in October and April.

  • Absolutely! We encourage family involvement. Parents can attend pack meetings, participate in events, become Den Leaders, or join the Pack Committee. Your involvement enriches the scouting experience for your child and the entire pack. Fill out our Talent Survey to see what role best suits you! Your support is invaluable.

  • Our annual registration fee is $205 for new scouts and $185 for returning scouts. This covers council, district and local level dues. There are additional costs for campouts- usually about $20- to cover reservations and food. We work as a pack to host fundraisers in order to cover some costs.
