PACK 477
The DENS and the PACK

Every Cub Scout PACK is broken into separate units called DENS. Each DEN is comprised of cub scouts around the same age or grade.  Each year, the cub scouts advance to the next DEN.

The larger PACK, generally meets about once a month.  All of the cub scouts and their families are welcome at the PACK MEETINGS.

Each DEN has separate meetings during the month.  DEN meetings concentrate on learning skills and activities.  Working on advancement requirements typically happens at DEN meetings.

Here are the DENS:

• Tigers
