In Cub Scouting, boys and their families have fun and adventure in a program
that builds character and instills values. Cub Scouting embraces the values
of citizenship, compassion, cooperation, courage, faith, health and fitness,
honesty, perseverance, positive attitude, resourcefulness, respect, and
responsibility. These values come to boys in all parts of the Cub Scout
program-all while they're having a great time with their friends and
families. The Cub Scout Program is a year-round family program designed for
boys who are in the first grade through fifth grade (or 7, 8, 9, and 10
years of age). Parents, leaders, and organizations work together to achieve
the purposes of Cub Scouting.
