Welcome To Bolingbrook Cub Scouts Pack 134
Cub Scout Pack 134
Scouting provides your son or daughter with a positive peer group and a program that is fun and adventurous helping them to “be prepared” to shape their own future. Pack 134 is sponsored by The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 5917 in Bolingbrook, Illinois.
As a Cub Scout your son or daughter will be a member of a Den that meets during the month, is led by a Den Leader (a fellow parent) and consists of 4 to 10 scouts of the same grade level. The various Dens combine to form our Pack, which meets the third Tuesday of each month at the Bolingbrook Community Center. Pack Nights are led by our Cubmaster who leads and conducts our ceremonies and presentations of awards earned during the preceding month. Pack Night is an excellent opportunity to share experiences, new skills and enjoy projects displayed by the various dens. The Pack is guided by the Pack Committee which is made up of parent volunteers and includes positions such as: Committee Chair, Treasurer, Popcorn Kernel, Awards, Secretary and members at large who all help coordinate pack activities, meetings, rank advancements, outings and policy.
The pack also has fun activities that happen throughout the year. In 2021-2022 the pack had a Pinewood Derby, Raingutter Regatta, Swimming pool event at the BRAC, a magician came to a pack night, hikes, kickball, a lock-in at the BRAC, we participated in Family Camp campout at Rainbow Scout Reservation and much, much more.
Pack 134 is a dynamic group, boys and girls generally join our Pack in Kindergarten and advance through fifth grade at which time they graduate to Scouts BSA Troops! As such, our leadership is also a dynamic group as leaders, committee members and volunteers advance “through the ranks” with their scouts and move on to Scouts BSA Troops. We look forward to including each and every parent in our Pack…being a volunteer is fun, challenging and rewarding!
