Joining our Pack is simple. Interested families should attend our New Cub Scout Orientation Meeting in September and/or the Raingutter Regatta event in April. Dates for these events will be announced ahead of time on this website. All new Cub Scouts are required to complete a BSA Youth Application an example of which can be found below or at the BSA website: http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/Media/forms.aspx. These forms will available in official carbon form during the New Cub Scout Orientation Meeting in September and the Raingutter Regatta event in April. Each application requires a one time $25.00 Enrollment Fee. Part or all of the Annual Dues can be "earned" through Pack fundraising activities such as popcorn and wreath sales. The annual dues not only change each year but are dependent on each family's fundraising activities. Generally, without fundraising, annual dues work out to about $20.00 per month for the school year, payable in November. With just moderate fundraising, the dues can be as low as $10.00 per month. With a higher level of fundraising, a family may have no dues to pay.A new uniform and Den Book cost approximately $60.00 and are available at the Troy Scout Shop located at 1155 East Long Lake Rd. in Troy, 248.253.9596. For those interested, the Detroit Area Council of Boy Scouts of America has a program of uniform donations that may be available and information can be obtained at the Scout Shop. Also, families from our own Pack may have uniform "hand me downs." A Class B uniform is a Cub Scout t-shirt, also available at the Scout Shop, For more information, or if you have any questions, please contact our Pack by clicking on the "Contact Our Pack" link above. |
