LEADERS
BENEFITS AND TRAINING
Scouting offers many opportunities for adults to learn and grow. Anyone stepping up to a leadership position in a Den or Pack will literally have a massive support system. There are opportunities for on-line and live training, specific to each role, and no-end of existing resources on–line. Additionally, there is training to learn and model classic outdoor scouting skills, such as camping. Start with https://www.scouting.org/training/adult/
ADULT REGISTRATION
To be a leader, or even an official volunteer, you must register. Go to BeAScout.org and register as an Adult. Your application will be routed through the system for approvals by the Chartering Organization and Pack leadership. The Pack will cover the fee for adult registration, so be sure to ask for reimbursment.
DEN LEADERS
Cub Scouts need the leadership and guidance of parents and adults to follow and enjoy the Cub Scout Curriculum. Two adults are needed as leaders for each Den; one leader must be female in the case of girls’ Dens. In the case of Lions (Kindergartners), a parent for each scout co-leads the Den, with the assistance of an experienced adult.
