Your
time is valuable. Today's families, more than ever, struggle to find
time to spend together. Cub Scouting helps to support your family by
providing ready-made opportunities for you and your son to do things
together.
In a society where your son is taught that winning is everything, Cub
Scouting teaches him to "do his best" and to be helpful to others.
Scouting teaches family values and works to strengthen your relationship
with your son, Scouting activities can bring added value to the time
you already have with your son.
Your son needs to belong to a group of boys his own age. Through this
sense of belonging, he builds his self esteem and learns to get along
with others. As a parent, you want to be assured that the groups that
your boy joins will teach values consistent with good citizenship,
character development, and physical fitness. Boy Scouts of America has
been weaving these lifetime values into fun and educational activities
since 1910.
But we know that boys do not join Cub Scouting just to get their character built. Boys join because it is fun.
Scouting is fun with a purpose!
