Cub Scout Pack 359

Cub Scout Pack 359 is chartered by the Knights of Columbus through St. Columbkille Church.  Cub Scouts are part of the larger of Boy Scouts of America organizations.

TIGER CUBS- “Search, Discover, Share

The Tiger Cub program is designed to introduce first grade boys and their adult partners to Cub scouting.  Each boy/adult pair selects a theme from one of the 17 “Big Ideas.”  They serve as hosts for a month, holding two meetings -- one meeting in a home and a second involving a field trip.  The Tiger Cub and his family are encouraged to attend the monthly Cub Scout pack meeting.

BOBCAT

This is the very first rank that EVERY boy MUST earn when entering Cub Scouts. The purpose is to instill in the new Cub Scout, the 7 “tracks” or basic tenets of Cub Scouting.

WOLF

Wolf cub’s complete12 tracks to earn the Wolf badge. During their work at home and in the den, they earn beads as evidence that they are “progressing toward rank”. Once they earn the Wolf badge, they can earn arrow point badges.

BEAR

Like Wolves, Bears must too complete 12 tracks, but they can select from a total of 24. These achievements are categorized into God, Country, Self and Family sections. They receive “progress toward rank” beads and can earn arrow points once they are awarded the Bear badge.

WEBELOS

These older scouts prepare for the transition into Boy Scouts. They earn badge pins in up to 20 activity areas that introduce them to many career possibilities. More independence is evidenced as the boys complete most of their activities in the den setting. Besides the Webelos badge, theses boys can earn the Arrow of Light badge.
