Cub Scouts Pack 442 - Lakeway, Texas

In Cub Scout Pack 442, we're all about having fun. But we're also all about learning, growing, and experiencing the world through the traditions of Scouting. We created this Web site to keep our families updated on the activities of Pack 442 of Lakeway Elementary School, as well as to answer some general questions about Scouting. NEW: Be sure to join our Yahoo group to stay up-to-date with the latest news and information and share information with your pack. We are no longer using our pack e-mail distribution list.

Why Scouting? Cub Scouting has nine purposes: 1. To positively influence character development and encourage spiritual growth. 2. To help boys develop habits and attitudes of good citizenship. 3. To encourage good sportsmanship and pride in growing strong in mind and body. 4. To improve understanding within the family. 5. To strengthen boys' ability to get along with other boys and respect other people. 6. To foster a sense of personal achievement by helping boys develop new interests and skills. 7. To show how to be helpful and do one's best. 8. To provide fun and exciting new things to do. 9. To prepare boys to become Boy Scouts .

Who can be a Cub Scout?
Cub Scouting has program components for boys in the first through fifth grades (or ages 7, 8, 9, or 10). Members join a Cub Scout pack and are assigned to a den, usually a neighborhood group of six to eight boys. First-grade boys (Tiger Cubs) meet twice a month, while Wolf Cub Scouts (second graders), Bear Cub Scouts (third graders), and Webelos Scouts (fourth and fifth graders) meet weekly.

Once a month, all of the dens and family members gather for a pack meeting under the direction of a Cubmaster and pack committee. The committee includes parents of boys in the pack and members of the chartered organization (the Lake Travis Lions Club). We usually meet at the Lakeway Activity Center on the 3rd Monday of the month from 7:00-8:00 p.m.
