Adult Leadership

The Pack

The Pack is a group made up of several dens. The Pack includes not only the boys in those dens, but also their families, and their leaders. 
The Cubmaster is an adult volunteer who serves as master of ceremonies at all Pack meetings and leads Pack activities of all kinds. Pack leadership positions may be held by women or men. 

The Pack Committee is a group of adult volunteers who plan the Pack program and individual activities as well as managing such things as record keeping, finance, leadership recruitment, and registration. The Pack Committee meets monthly and meetings are open to any interested parent.

Den Leaders

Each den is lead by volunteer Den Leaders/Assistant Den Leaders. At the Tiger level, the Den Leader guides the cub parents in a "shared leadership" concept where each family participates in den meeting activities and planning.

Den leaders participate in monthly leader meetings and help contribute to ideas and planning of pack events.

Leaders can take online training to get them up and running right from the start. A good resource for new leaders can be found at MyScouting.org. In addition to online training, additional training is made available by the Patriots' Path Council (such as Youth Protection and Leader Specific classes). In addition, the council provides some amazing resources at the University of Scouting, held each October in Denville, NJ.

Den leaders can fill out an Adult Leader Application or pick one up from your Committee Chair or Annual Recruiting Event.
