The Cub Scouts program helps each of participant grow, learn new skills, effectively pursue individual endeavors as well as build leadership traits and engender a cohesive spirit of camaraderie and teamwork. Each activity in which the Cub Scout participates leaves him with greater confidence in himself and provides talents which complement his academic and extracurricular life. And every single activity is built around the central tenet that it must be enjoyable.
Adult leaders in Pack 55 undergo a CORI check and complete specialized training. Parents are always welcome to actively participate in Pack activities. Pack 55 welcomes boys from all backgrounds who wish to be included.
