With a program tailored to match each age in a young person's life, Cub Scouts learn that even when fun isn’t easy, it is always an adventure. In Scouting, everything has a purpose.

Seven Goals of Cub Scouts
Cub Scouting uses seven specific methods to achieve Scouting's aims of helping boys and young adults build character, train in the responsibilities of citizenship, and develop personal fitness.
1. The Ideal
The Scout Oath, the Scout Law, and the Cub Scout sign, handshake, motto, and salute all teach good citizenship and contribute to a child’s sense of belonging.
2. The Den
Children like to belong to a group. The Den is the place where they learn new skills and develop interests in new things. They have fun in Den meetings, during indoor and outdoor activities, and on field trips. As part of a smaller group of Scouts, they are able to learn sportsmanship and good citizenship. They learn how to get along with others. They learn how to do their best, not just for themselves but also for the Den.
3. Advancement
Recognition is important to children. The advancement plan provides fun for them, gives them a sense of personal achievement as they earn achievements, and strengthens family understanding as adult family members work with them on advancement projects.
4. Family Involvement
Family involvement is an essential part of Cub Scouting.
5. Activities
In Cub Scouting, children participate in a wide variety of Den and Pack activities, such as games, projects, skits, stunts, songs, outdoor activities, and trips.
6. Home & Neighborhood Centered
Cub Scouting meetings and activities happen in urban areas, in rural communities, in large cities, in small towns—wherever boys live.
7. The Uniform
The Lion Cub, Cub Scout, and Webelos Scout uniforms help build pride, loyalty, and self-respect. Wearing the uniform to all Den and Pack meetings and activities also encourages a neat appearance, a sense of belonging, and good behavior.
