Back to School means Back to Scouts!

Back to school means back to other activities: sports, after school programs, and one that can impact your child’s life for years—Scouting. This week at your school’s Open House, look for a Cub Scout Pack with info on how to join scouting. Cub Scouting, for boys in first through fifth grades, weaves the concepts of getting along with others, self-reliance, new skills, and fitness into fun, safe activities. Cub Scouting also encourages strong family involvement, so it’s good for boys and their parents too! If you are unable to meet a Cub Scout unit at Open House, visit www.BeAScout.org or call the Old Hickory Council at 336-760-2900 to find a pack in your area.
