Pack Crestwood
Registration & Renewal:
Download forms and submit to your Den Leader
Pack 6 Crestwood welcomes new boys to become Cub Scouts. New boys will be placed into a den based on availability within existing dens. Parents needed to volunteer as den leaders in order to create brand new dens, in particular, the younger ranks (e.g., Lion/Kindergarten, Tiger/1st Grade). Lion and Tiger Parents attend all scout meetings as an adult partner (does not have to be the same parent who comes to every meeting.)
TO JOIN, COMPLETE THESE STEPS TO APPLY
Parent completes and submits BSA Youth Application (One-time only; for brand-new scouts).
Contact the Cubmaster at Pack6Crestwood@gmail.com with any questions.
​​​
Cubmaster will contact parents in approximately two weeks to confirm availability of space within an existing den or the creation of a new den (parent volunteers needed to help run new dens).
