Church, and meets in the cafeteria at Center Grove Elementary School.
The cafeteria is also reserved
for Den meetings and Pack Meetings on Tuesday nights throughout the
school year.
Generally Meetings are held as follows:
2nd Tuesday of Month is Den Meetings
3rd Tuesday is Committee Meetings
4th Tuesday is Pack Meetings
Additional
trips or changes to this general schedule can
be found on the Calendar
as well as all activities planned for the 2011-2012 School Year. See Events for more details about
our upcoming activities.

Parent Volunteers Always Welcome
Parents, we
can always use extra help to run the pack
more smoothly. Perhaps you can donate your time and/or talents to make
this program even more enjoyable for our boys!
Please
remember it is the parents' responsibility to discipline their children
and make sure that their behavior is appropriate. We should show the
Center Grove School or wherever our meeting is the same respect and
behavior that we would during school hours.

Uniforms
New scouts
receive a 'welcome to the Pack' neckerchief
at the time of registration or at their first pack meeting containing
their den # patch, Patriots Path Council patch, and 166 patch. More
information on uniforms.
Uniforms should be worn at Den Meetings, Pack Meetings and official
pack events. Pack t-shirts can be worn for less formal or more messy
events.
The Academic
and Sports Program is an optional program
for all Cub Scouts. It is not part of the normal requirements towards
ranks, except where used in obtaining various Webelos activity badges
and Wolf Elective 20 (Sports). Its purpose is to assist the Scouts in
learning a new skill, or improving one they already possess. A variety
of recognition items are available for the boys (Tiger Cubs, Cub
Scouts, or Webelos Scouts) who participate in the program. (Adults are
NOT awarded with belt loops or pins.). Trish
Zelley is the Cub Scout advancement coordinator. Please
contact her with advancement information or questions.
