When you join Pack 32, we want to make you feel welcome.
Check out our New Family Packet to help you jump right in and feel prepared for Meetings, Activities and Camp outs or contact us if you have any questions.
In addition, check out the information below for an overview of pack activities.
Scouts primarily meet in Dens, groups based on grade-level along with their Den Leaders.
In Den Meetings your Scout enjoys various planned activities, learn new skills, and some times go on outings.
While parental attendance is not required at Den Meetings (except for Lions and Tigers), it is certainly encouraged!
Your Den Leader runs the meetings with the support of the Cubmaster and Den Parents. She keeps track of you Scout's progress and keeps you informed of any missing adventure requirements.
About every 4-6 weeks, all Dens come together for a Pack Meeting. These meetings are for all Cub Scouts and their families, where Dens can showcase the projects they’ve been working on.
Pack Meetings are a fun time for all, full of Cub Scout spirit! They include songs, skits, games, and surprises.
Scouts also receive awards for the Adventures they’ve earned.
Be sure to attend and join in the excitement as you watch your Scout advance and grow!
Scouting is an outdoor-based program, and about four times a year, our Pack heads out for a camping adventure.
These trips into the great outdoors are led by trained volunteers, ensuring your child’s safety by following the Scouting America Guide to Safe Scouting. Activities are age- and skill-appropriate for all participants. And sometimes we see an Eclipse!
We encourage families to join, though Lion and Tiger Scouts require an adult partner. Families can choose to camp overnight or just attend daytime activities.
The Pack provides main meals and shared equipment, like our camp kitchen and canopies. Families are responsible for personal gear such as tents, sleeping bags, lanterns, and bug spray. If you’re new to camping, the Pack and families often have extra tents and sleeping bags to share.
For more details, check out our Pack 32 Camping Guide.
We partner in this Annual Food Drive with the Older Scouts in Troops 43B, 43G and 14 to collect over 6,000 pounds of food and deliver to the Woodford Food Pantry to help Woodford County Families
Each Spring, we adopt a local park to help clean up so the Community can enjoy the Great Outdoors. The past two years we have cleaned up the Huntertown Community Interpretive Park, the site of a Historic African American Community in Woodford County
Cub Scouts share their Scouting Spirit with the community waving flags and displaying handmade posters and decorations in the Christmas Parade (first Saturday of December), Kids Win! Parade (May) and the Fourth of July Parade
Pack 32 celebrates Cub Scouting’s Birthday Party in early February near the founding of Scouting in America on February 8, 1910, and Pack 32 in 1948. Games, Songs, Skits, and Scout Spirit Abound!!! And what kind of party is it without….. CAKE!!
One of the most popular family activities, Cub Scouts race Pinewood Derby Cars they make with help from their families. Scouts are awarded Design Awards, Den Speed Trophies and Grand Champion Awards. The race usually takes place on a Saturday in early March and Newton’s Attic offers workshops to help families make their cars.
Throughout the year Scouts work on Adventures, learning new skills, growing and having fun! When Scouts earn their Six Required Adventures and Two Electives, they are awarded their Badge of Rank.
At the End of the Scouting Year, the Scouts advance to the next stage of the Cub Scout Trail by Bridging over to the Next Rank. Bridging usually occurs in May.
For Arrow of Light Scouts (5th graders), their final night of being a Cub Scout occurs at the Arrow of Light Crossover celebration. At that time, AOLs will be invited to join one of Woodford Counties Scouts BSA Troop – Troop 14, TRoop 43B or 43G. The entire family, including grandparents and other special guests are encouraged to attend.
Earning rank relative to each grade-level is not required, but is encouraged as one of the methods of the scouting experience. A scout works at their own pace at home or during Den & Pack outings and meetings.
