Frequently Asked Questions

How can I join Cub Scout Pack 113?

Click "Join" on the menu bar, then follow the link to the My Scouting website.

When we get the notification, you'll be emailed by your pack leader and den leader.

Is there a cost to participate in your programs?

There is an initial $125 joining fee, but payment plans or finantial assistance are available.

The pack covers the yearly renewal fee, provided the scout takes part in fundraising.  

When do you meet?

Each den (grade) decides on a consistant day of the week and time. 

3 &4 meet on scheduled Tuesdays at 6:30. K, 1&2 meet on scheduled Thursdays at 6 or 6:30.

The pack meetings rotate. (with an occational Saturday.)

We are outdoors as much as possible, but meet at St John's Lutheran Church during the winter.

What if that meeting time doesn't work for us?

We are alwasy ready to grow and add new dens.

If there are scouts (and an adult leader) who would like to form early afternoon/weekend dens, we will get you set up!

Is this boy scouts? Are only boys allowed?

Cub Scouts is part of Scouting America, formally Boy Scouts of America.

Our pack accepts ALL children, K-5th grade.

When scouts continue on after 5th grade, they join a troop that matches their gender.

But we do have a relationship with our local girl scout group and sometimes do joint activities.
