Before getting invested, the recruit needs to learn the essentials of Cub Scouting;

think of others before themselves
and do a good turn every day.

When a Cub gets invested into the Pack, parents will be invited to join us for the cermony. Parents are welcome to bring their cameras so they can capture this special occasion.
This will be a good opportunity to meet the leaders, ask questions, and find out more about the Pack and our plans for the future weeks.
