Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can we join? How do we join? Did we miss out on joining? Do you have room?

Answered on the How to Join page. We accept scouts year-round, and there is almost always room. Sometimes we have to split dens if they get too big.

What day and time are the meetings? How often do you meet? Will the meeting schedule fit with my work schedule?

Dens meet 1-2 times per month. Check out the pack calendar for the current den meeting plan.

For incoming Lions (kindergarteners), meeting times won’t be set until the den forms and we have a den leader. The den leader, along with the parents, will pick a day and time that works best.

What are the dues?

Answered on the How to Join page.

May we visit a meeting? Can my child see what it is before we make a commitment?

Yes! When you contact us, we will automatically invite you to our next Pack and Den meetings. You can attend as a guest before making any commitment.

Is this the right pack for my school/area?

There are no assigned areas or packs. You are free to pick any pack. “Shop around” at http://beascout.org to find one near you. Factors include distance from your house, does your child have friends in the pack, and affinity with the chartered organization.

Having friends in scouting is usually the #1 factor in determining whether your child will enjoy being a Cub Scout.

Pack 3390 represents scouts from Herberich Primary School, St. Hilary Primary School, and other interested scouts in the Copley/Fairlawn/Bath area

What age do you start in Cub Scouts?

Cub Scouts starts either in kindergarten or first grade. The kindergarten program (called Lions) is an age-appropriate junior version of Cub Scouts designed to ease families into scouting without overwhelming anybody. The first grade program (called Tigers) is the full Cub Scout program that continues through 5th grade.

Is you have a family scouting program (mixed boys and girls)?

Yes, Pack 3390 has Dens for boys and girls.

What activities do you do? Will you go camping?

Spoiler alert: YES! Camping is a blast!
