What is Pack 555 Scouting All About?

The ten purposes of Cub Scouting are:

Character Development
Spiritual Growth
Good Citizenship
Sportsmanship and Fitness
Family Understanding
Respectful Relationships
Personal Achievement
Friendly Service
Fun and Adventure
Preparation for Boy Scouts

At Pack 555, we teach this through structured Den and Pack Meetings filled with educational and fun activities, field trips and hikes, outdoor events and camping, and community service projects like cleaning up our schools and food collections for the needy.

So please keep an eye out as our Calendar gets filled out in the next few weeks! If you have any questions, just let us know at pack555burlington@comcast.net.
