During their time in the Pack, Cubs will get a chance to try lots of different activities like swimming, music, exploring, computing and collecting.

There are a range of badges available which Cubs can wear on their uniforms to show everyone how well they’re doing.

Cubs also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, theme parks or a farm. Sometimes they will be able to go camping with the rest of the Pack and take part in all kinds of outdoor activities.

Structure

A Pack of Cubs is organised into Sixes, with each Six named after a colour, and a Sixer and a Seconder in charge.

Promise and Law

After attending meetings for a few weeks, members will make their promise as part of an investiture ceremony.

Many members also renew their promise on an annual basis, traditionally at a St. Georges Day service, meeting or outdoor activity.

In 2014 additional alternative versions to the promise were made available to Scout Groups in order to welcome even more young people to Scouting. The core promise, which refers to a ‘Duty to God’, remains intact and Scouting remains fully committed as a Movement that explores faith and religion as a core element of its programme.

If you would like your child to make a specific promise, please discuss it with the leader.

Cub Scout Law

Cub Scouts always do their best
Thinks of others before themselves
And do a good turn every day

Cub Scout Promise*

On my honour
I promise that I will do my best
To do my duty to God
and to the King
To help other people
and to keep the Cub Scout Law

*as mentioned above, the Cub Scout Promise has alternate versions so that every Cub can make a meaningful promise.
