Ranks Within The Pack
Pack 133 is made up of the following ranks:
Lion - boys in Kindergarten
Tiger - boys in 1st grade
Wolf - boys in 2nd grade
Bear - boys in 3rd grade
Webelos I - boys in 4th grade
AOL - boys in 5th grade
Dens are formed within each rank. The boys will stay together with their den until they finish the Cub Scout program. Dens usually are made up of 6 - 10 boys.
At the Lion and Tiger level, the Scouts meet once per month, with their adult partner. Occasionally, one of those meetings may be a field trip or other activity.
As the Scout progresses in ranks, they are taught to be more independent. Parental involvement, although always allowed and encouraged, tapers off so that the Scout may learn to think, act and learn on their own. Den Leaders will ask for volunteers to help with certain activities and all parents are asked to volunteer to help the pack leadership.
