Each boy/adult team meets for family activities, then once or twice a month all the teams meet for Tiger Cub group activities.







A family- and home-centered program for boys in the second through fifth grade (or 8, 9, and 10 years old). Cub Scouting's emphasis is on quality program at the local level, where the most boys and families are involved. Fourth- and fifth-grade (or 10-year-old) boys are called Webelos (WE'll BELOyal Scouts) and participate in more advanced activities that begin to prepare them to become Boy Scouts.
