About the Webelos

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

webd.cThe Webelos Scout Den is for boys in the fourth and fifth grades.

The Webelos den is much like the Cub Scout dens, but there is more emphasis on the boys learning to take leadership roles and preparing to become Boy Scouts.
Weblo scouts currently meet at the Schnee home on Tuesdays.

About the Bear Cub Scout

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

bear.cThe Bear Cub Den is for boys in the third grade.

Parents are vital to the Cub Scout dens, both in the role of the home support and to help the den leader, but their sons are beginning to be more independent, and not everyboy needs a parent at every meeting. The den consist of four to eight boys, a den leader and assistant den leader (usually parents of some of the boys),  and often a den chief (an older Boy Scout or Venturer who helps the den leader). They meet once a week at a regularly scheduled time and place, and they also attend the pack meeting with their families.

About The Tiger Den

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

tiger.cThe Tiger Cub Den is for boys in the first grade.

Parents are most involved at the Tiger Cub level. The boy and his parent or guardian join the den together and attend all meetings and activities together.

The den is made up of three to eight of the Parenet-son teams. Each den also has a Tiger Cub den leader, (usually one of the parents) who helps coordinate the meetings. The parent-son teams take turns running the activies and planning meeting with the Tiger Cub den leader. The den has two meeting a month, either at the homes of host parent-son teams or designates a facility, particiapates in one “Go See It” activity (the den, as a group, visits a community place of interest), and attends the monthly pack meeting.

For more information on how to join the Tiger Den please contact:  Cubmaster, Chris Cropley at cubmaster@azpack221.com
