Pack 60 is the oldest pack in Papillion. We are sponsored by the American Legion Post 32, located in downtown Papillion. We belong to the Wagon Wheel District, and Mid-America Council.
Scouting can help young boys and girls enhance close relationships with their families and God, while developing strong and desirable traits of character, citizenship, physical and mental fitness. Scouting also provides boys and girls leadership opportunities and helps them develop habits and attitudes of good citizenship.
Cub Scouts is a family program, and parental help is the key to a successful scout. The scouts need their parents' help with achievements and electives.
Each scout starts as a member of a den, but is a part of a much larger network of scouts that will help support their growth and development throughout their scouting adventures. Members join a Cub Scout pack and are assigned to a Den based on their grade. Each den is lead by a Den Leader, which is a trained parent volunteer. Den meetings will be planned by the leader, and include games, handcrafts, hikes, and other outdoor fun, practicing skits and stunts in preparation for the next Pack meeting and taking part in simple ceremonies and songs.

Our pack typically meets on the fourth Monday of the month. There are a few months that meeting dates have to be changed due to the activity. Dens meet one to two times a month, on a day of the week that the Den Leader has decided on.
As a pack, we do various activities on top of the pack and den meetings. We have two camp outs every school year, one in the fall and another in the spring which are scheduled on a Saturday. There is no requirements to spending the night, but is is encouraged to at least attend the daytime activities.
We also participate in a cleanup effort with the VFW in Papillion. They give us use of their land as a camping site at no cost, so as a payment we help with picking up garbage and sticks on the property.
Other activities that the Pack participates in are, and not limited to, popcorn sales, Pinewood derby, family cake bake, Bingo night with the retirees, Scouting for food, and our much anticipated Blue and Gold Banquet.
