Cub Scouting wants you!
Now is the time to join the fun and excitement of America’s foremost youth program for boys—Cub Scouting.
Pack 55 will be holding a sign-up night on Friday, September 11, 2015 from 6-7:30 pm at Alvin S. Brown
Scout Hall, 47 Mount Pleasant Street, Rockport. Fliers with additional details will be distributed at school.
Designed for boys in grades 1 through 5, Cub Scouting combines outdoor activities, sports, academics, and
more in a fun and exciting program that helps families teach ideals such as honesty, good citizenship, and
respect.
Last year Rockport Cub Scouts hosted the annual Haunted Hayride, visited the TD Garden for a Celtics game,
led the Santa Claus parade from T-Wharf to Dock Square, performed for the residents of Den Mar Nursing
Home, hosted a Corned Beef & Cabbage dinner for Saint Patrick’s days engaged in hikes and camp-outs, visited
the Rockport Police Station, raced in the Pinewood Derby, slept on a famous WWII Battleship and were
involved in countless other fun and enriching activities.
Parents are also invited to accept leadership roles within the pack which include Den Leaders, Assistant Den
Leaders and Committee Seats such as advancement, recruiting and membership, public relations, social media
coordination among others.
The Boy Scouts of America comprises more than one million volunteers working together for the sole purpose
of helping its nearly three million youth succeed in life.
Pack 55 is a non-denominational, open, affirming and inclusive unit of the Boy Scouts of America.
