                      Our Cub Pack

                      Picture
                      There are loads of fun things that our Cub Scouts get up to.  If you join our Pack you will get a change to try lots of different activities like swimming, music, exploring, computing and collecting.  If you do them well, you will get a badge you can wear on your uniform.  Sometimes you will be able to go camping with the rest of your Pack.

                      Our Cub Pack is for young people (male or female) aged between eight and ten-and-a-half years old.  Cubs can move up to Scouts from the age of 10-10½ years.

                      Cubs meet at the HQ every Tuesday between 1845-2000.
                       
                      If your child wants to take part in the fun of Cub Scouting at 4th Ewell, please Contact Us.

                      Joining Cubs

                      We welcome new members to a no obligation free trial to make sure Cubs is for them.  Once a young person has been in a section for 6-8 weeks, they will be asked if they want to be invested in order to become a full member of the Pack.  This will involve learning a bit about Scouting, buying a uniform (see Scout Shop) and making a Promise.

                      The Cub Scout Promise is:

                          I promise that I will do my best
                          To do my duty to God and to the Queen,
                          To help other people
                          And to keep the Cub Scout Law


                      Parents will always be invited to attend their child’s investiture, which usually takes place at either the beginning or the end of an evening meeting.  When your child is invested, they will be presented with a 4th Ewell scarf and a set of badges to go on their uniform.  The diagrams below show where these badges should go.

                      Chief Scout's Silver Award

                      This badge is the highest award available in the Cub Scout Section. It is gained by completing:
                      • Promise Challenge
                      • Creative Challenge
                      • Community Challenge
                      • Fitness Challenge
                      • Global Challenge
                      • Outdoor Challenge
                      • Outdoor Plus Challenge (Optional)
                      If a Cub Scout has not quite completed the requirements for the top award when they move on to the Scout Troop, they may complete them in their first few weeks in the Scout Troop.

                      Activity badges

                      Picture
                      Activity Badges are optional, but they provide an opportunity to reward a young person who has taken part in an activity over a period of time. They should raise interest and extend a young person's skills throughout their time in Scouting. There are 35 badges available for Cub Scouts.

                      In addition, there are six Staged Activity Badges that can be undertaken as a young person progresses through the sections, from Beaver to Explorer Scout.

                      You may find that your son/daughter has already met the requirements of some of the badges in their other extra curricular activities.  Good examples are the Swimmer and Musician Badges.  It's well worth having a look through, then bring in any evidence you have to show your Leader.  For more information on the Activity Badges, click here.
