Frequently Asked Questions

How often do you meet?

Most meetings and activities occur Thursday evenings at 7:00pm from september through May.  About once a month events are held on Saturday abd/or Sunday.

What happens if we miss a meeting?

You get out of Cub Scouts what you put in.  But the program is flexible enough that an occasional conflict does not prevent your family from being part of the fun.

How are families involved?

Cub Scouts is made for families!  All meetings and events are family oriented so Scouts and their families experience the adventure and create memories together.  The Pack is 100% volunteer led by the parents and family of its members.  Every adult supports the Pack in a way that matches their ability.

What does it cost?

Every Cub Scout Pack is unique in the way it funds its programs and activities.  In Pack 256, it costs about $600 per Scout per year to provide a quality program.  A portion of that cost is defrayed through fundraising efforts and some events paid for by participants.  The amount left that each family pays is starts at $120 per Scout per year. Some events are pay-per-attendee and can be offset trhough fundraising activities.  Cub Scout uniforms are available to purchase through the Scout Shop, or through some secondary markets such as the Pack's uniform exchange.
