Scouting Programs
TIGER CUBS
Tiger Cubs is a simple
and fun program for boys entering first grade and their adult partners. The program
stresses simplicity, shared leadership, learning about the community and family
understanding. Each boy-adult team meets for family activities and Tiger Cub den
activities.
CUB SCOUTING
Cub Scouting is a family
and home-centered program for boys in the second through fifth grades (8, 9 and 10 years
old.) Fourth and fifth grade (10 years old) boys are called Webelos Scouts and participate
in more advanced activities that begin to prepare them to become Boy Scouts. Cub Scouts
get to wear a cool uniform, go places like summer camp and day camp. They build racecars
and birdhouses and learn all sorts of new and exciting things.
BOY SCOUTING
Boy Scouting is a
program for boys 11 through 17, and is designed to achieve the aims of Scouting through a
vigorous outdoor program and peer group leadership with the counsel of an adult
Scoutmaster. Boy Scouts camp, hike and fish in the great outdoors. They get together in
troops, and try out new and exciting experiences.
EXPLORING
Exploring is a young
adult program of the Boy Scouts of America for men and women ages 14–20. The program
is developed by local community organizations such as businesses, industries, professions,
churches and civic groups to match the interest of young adults with the program resources
of the organization. Explorers not only learn about their career interest, but also
experience adventurous programs and activities offered through Scouting.
VENTURING
Venturing is a program
for young men and women who are 14 through 20 years of age. Venturing provides positive
experiences through exciting and meaningful activities that help youth pursue their
special interest to grow to develop leadership skills and to become good citizens. Learn
