Cubs
8 to 101⁄2 years: Learn practical skills while having adventures with friends
Welcome to the Cubs section of scouting. It’s so much more than just a ‘one evening a week club’. We want cubs to join in ALL our events. Cubs progress to Scouts after they are 10 and before they are 11.
What do Cubs do?
Have fun! We go camping, go on days out, play games and many activities that give them the opportunity for recognition of their achievements when we award them badges. All Cubs promise:
The Cub Scout promise
I promise to do my best, to do my duty to God & the King, to help other people, and keep the Cub Scout law
The Cub Pack
That your child is joining is led by a Cub Scout Leader ‘Akela’ – David Coleman. We start a pack night with opening and closing ceremonies which include inspection which encourages pride in their uniform and personal belongings. When they formally join
they are invested and they get their necker and make the promise above.
Uniform:
Cub Sweatshirt, Polo shirt plus a ‘power pack’ book. We provide: necker, woggle & all badges.
A guide to where badges go can be found in the parent portal of OSM, and also under our ;For Parents’ section.
