Why Cub Scouts?
Scouting is open to both boys and girls!
The BSA Expands Programs to Welcome Girls from Cub Scouts to Highest Rank of Eagle Scout.
Starting in 2018, families have been able to choose Cub Scouts for their sons and daughters in grades Kindergarten through 5th so they can take advantage of the life-changing experiences provided through Scouting.
Cub Scouting is organized in packs and dens. Our pack has both boys and girls with an adult leader for the girls.
Older girls can join Scouting, BSA, which allows girls to participate and earn the highest rank of Eagle Scout.The Boy Scouts of America is committed to serving youth, families and communities through programs that deliver character development and values-‐based leadership training for young people–all while remaining true to our mission and core values, outlined in the Scout Oath and Law.A Unique Model to Provide Program Options for Boys and Girls.
For older youth in grades 6 through 12 (starting as soon as school is out for the summer) can join Troop 492 B(boys) or 492 G(girls). This hybrid model builds on the benefit of a single‐gender program while also providing character and leadership opportunities for both boys and girls their chartered organization. Our units are all linked, so many of the same activites run at the same time to allow for families to participate in both programs at the same time. But they will still have events tailored to their age group.
