Every Youth Deserves a Trained Leader | |
 |
Cub Scouts, a young man's first steps into the world of Scouting! For many leaders this will be their first steps into the Scouting world as well. Pack 107 believes in having all of its leaders fully trained so that they may wear the "TRAINED" patch on their Scouting Uniform, providing all of our Scouts with a fun-filled, safe, and action-packed program! For new leaders, or those that are changing positions, we encourage you to become "Trained" as soon as possible. |
