Boise's Cub Scout Pack Since 1914

We're one of the longest-running packs in the area, and we'd love for your family to be part of what comes next.

A Pack Built by Families, for Families

The families who stick around will tell you it's the small stuff that matters: dens of six to twelve kids, so your Scout is known by name, not just a face in the crowd. Throughout the year, kids camp, race Pinewood Derby cars, march in the Veterans Day Parade, and even tour the Idaho State Capitol with State Senators. It's a parent-led, non-denominational community, and the warmth here comes straight from the families who shape it.

What is Cub Scouting?


Cub Scouts is Scouting America's program for boys and girls in kindergarten through fifth grade. It is a fun way to spend time with your child while they grow in character, confidence, and citizenship, explore the outdoors, and make friends. Safety comes first everywhere: every adult leader completes Safeguarding Youth training. Kids join for the fun. The rest comes along for the ride.

More about how the program works

How a pack works

Your child joins a den, a small group of Cub Scouts in the same grade that meets a couple of times a month. All the dens together make up the pack, which gathers monthly for games, skits, songs, and awards. Across the year a pack also camps, races in the Pinewood Derby, celebrates at the blue and gold banquet, and pitches in on service projects.

The trail from Lion to Arrow of Light

Cub Scouts advance by grade, earning badges through hands-on adventures:

  • Lion (kindergarten)
  • Tiger (first grade)
  • Wolf (second grade)
  • Bear (third grade)
  • Webelos (fourth grade)
  • Arrow of Light (fifth grade)

Lions and Tigers do everything alongside a parent or another caring adult. Each year after, Cub Scouts grow more independent, and Arrow of Light Scouts get ready to cross over into Scouts BSA.

What Cub Scouts promise

Cub Scouts live by the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.

The Scout Oath:

On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.

The Scout Law:

A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

The Cub Scout motto keeps it simple: "Do Your Best."

Parents belong here

Cub Scouting is built for families. Parents work on adventures at home, cheer at pack meetings, and help keep the pack running as den leaders, committee members, and helpers. Safety comes first everywhere: every adult leader completes Safeguarding Youth training, and packs follow Scouting America's youth-safety policies.

Where and When We Meet

We gather most Monday evenings from 6 to 7 PM during the school year at Cathedral of the Rockies, 717 N 11th St in Boise. Some weeks we're out at nearby parks for hikes or bike rides instead. Come see a meeting before you decide anything, or catch our Open House in August to meet us all at once.
