About Pack 382
Since 1930, the Boy Scouts of America has helped younger boys through Cub Scouting. It is a year-round family program designed for boys who are in the first grade through fifth grade (or 7 – 10 years of age). Parents, leaders, and organizations work together to achieve the purposes of Cub Scouting. Currently, Cub Scouting is the largest of the BSA’s three membership divisions (The others are Boy Scouting and Venturing). We have provided some information here, but you may also wish to visit Scouting.org for more information.
For over a century, the Boy Scouts of America has helped build the future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. The Boy Scouts of America believes — and, through over a century of experience, knows — that helping youth is a key to building a more conscientious, responsible, and productive society.
The Cub Scouting program has 10 purposes related to the overall mission of the Boy Scouts of America—to build character, learn citizenship, and develop personal fitness: - Character Development - Spiritual Growth - Good Citizenship - Sportsmanship and Fitness - Family Understanding - Respectful Relationships - Personal Achievement - Friendly Service - Fun and Adventure - Preparation for Boy Scouts

The Cub Scout follows Akela. The Cub Scout helps the pack go. The pack helps the Cub Scout grow. The Cub Scout gives goodwill.
The Cub Scouting colors are blue and gold. They have a special meaning, which will help boys see beyond the fun of Cub Scouting to its ultimate goals: The BLUE stands for truth and spirituality, steadfast loyalty, and the sky above; and The GOLD stands for warm sunlight, good cheer, and happiness.
"My son joined the Cub Scouts as a Tiger and the experience allowed us to spend more time together. He's become more independent now that he's a Webelos, but we enjoy a lot of time with each other."
~ Parent of Cub Scout
"I like seeing my friends every week. It's like a club and the other kids in school don't know how cool the stuff we do is. We play games, learn how to do things and make stuff. I won the Pine Wood Derby one year. That was AWESOME!"
~ Cub Scout
"Our Pack Rocks! We have a great group of boys and parents that always get things done above and beyond what is expected."
~ Webelos Den Leader
