Meets 7:00 PM Thursdays
Shepherdsville Community Center

To join in on the fun of Cub Scouting, boys may sign-up at one of the special recruiting nights held during the month of August or at other times during the year; OR simply show up and register at any weekly Thursday night den meeting anytime during the school year.

Upon joining, parents will pay a nominal fee that will include the boy's initial membership registration, a subscription to the Cub Scout edition of Boys' Life magazine, a Pack 868 numeral for his scout uniform, the appropriate rank handbook for his age/grade, and a Pack 868 shirt so that he'll instantly feel like part of the group.

Boys will be assigned to a den that is appropriate for their age or grade in school.  In cases where a boy may be older than other boys at his grade level, parents and troop leaders will work together to place the boy in the den that is most appropriate for his particular situation.

Dens will meet weekly on Thursday nights during the school year (September through the end of May).  Dens will not meet during the summer months, on national holidays, or during major school breaks.  Den meetings will end at a reasonable time because we know that boys need to get home and into bed on school nights.

If a boy misses a weekly den meeting he won't have to write sentences or run laps upon his return --- Scouting doesn't punish boys for missing meetings.  It is perfectly OK for boys to miss a meeting because of a special school program, family event, or other conflicting activity.  We try to make the program fun and interesting so that boys will look forward to the weekly meetings and WANT to attend.
