Corpus Christi Cub Scout Pack is divided into "dens" or groups, by the different ages of the boys. These dens are each working on their current "rank." We have five different dens at present.

TIGER: Our youngest group of Cub Scouts is working on their "Tiger Cub" rank. These boys must be 7 years old or in the first grade.

WOLF: Our "Wolf' den consists of second grade or 8-year-old boys.

BEAR: The "Bear" den includes boys who are in the third grade, or are 9 years old.

WEBELO: There are two groups of "Webelos" ranked Cub Scouts. Our first year Webelos are in the fourth grade or are 10 years old.

WEBELO 2: Our second year Webelos are 11 years old or in the fifth grade.

Each of our Cub Scout dens meets twice each month for their den meetings. These are typically an hour and a half long. They meet in the Corpus Christi Scout Room, which is located upstairs over the preschool room.

The registration fee for joining our pack is just $10, and includes registration and insurance. If your son would like a subscription to Boy's Life Magazine, it is an additional $10.

Our pack sells Trail's End popcorn as our main fundraiser each year. This fundraiser begins in mid-September and runs through the first week of October. Prizes for top sellers are awarded at our November pack meeting. We ask that each family participate in the fundraiser or pay a $60 fee.

Our pack meets on the fourth Tuesday of every month in the Corpus Christi Cafetorium at 6:30 p.m. during the months of August though April. If we have a special activity planned, we may meet on a different day.

"We have our Crossover/Graduation in May. Crossover is when the boys are awarded their rank that they have worked on throughout the year and when our second year Webelos graduate into a Boy Scout Troop. When the Webelos graduate from our pack, they typically join one of the local Boy Scout Troops, such as Troop #358 of Corpus Christi or Troop #399 of Sacred Heart.
