Welcome to Pack One!
On this page, you will find important information that will help you start your Cub Scout Journey.
​
Cub Scouting is for families, not just children. The entire family is welcome to all events, meetings, and activities (unless otherwise noted). For safety reasons, we require a parent or guardian at every activity and meeting. ​
​
Cub Scouts is organized by Packs and Dens. One Pack is made up of multiple Dens. The Pack includes all grades from K-5. Our Pack and Dens are fully inclusive of boys and girls. Cub Scouts is a family organization - all parents and siblings are welcome!
Pack Meetings are held once a month on the 1st Friday (unless otherwise noted on our Calendar) at the Church of the Good Shepherd on Newtown Road. We do fun activities, games, and sometimes have guest speakers.
​
Pack Activities vary throughout the year. Most activities are within a one hour drive of Acton. Check our calendar for upcoming events.
Den Meetings (1-2 times per month) are where Scouts work on advancement to earn their belt loops, pins, and badges. Den meeting schedules are decided upon by the families for when it is most convenient.
