The mission of the Scouts BSA is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.
Why Join Cub Scouts?
Scouting teaches values and works to strengthen your relationship with your child.
Your time is valuable. Families struggle to find time to spend together. Cub Scouts helps support your family by providing numerous opportunities for you and your child to do things together.

We work together to fulfill the 10 purposes of Cub Scouting:

- Preparation for Higher Levels of Scouting
How Does It Work?
When your child becomes a Cub Scout, you take on an important role, too. Scouts have a different handbook for each grade level with age-appropriate activities. You help them complete the activities and achievements offer guidance support and even a helping hand.
