Membership in Cub Scouting is accomplished through registration in local packs. The joining requirements can be found on the
Youth Application. They include five elements:
- Grade. A boy must be in the first through fifth grade (or be 7, 8, 9, or 10 years old).
- Parental consent. A boy must have the written consent of his parent or guardian.
- Registration. A boy may register with the pack of his choice by paying the national registration fee.
- Application form. A boy and his parent complete the Youth Application. They agree to attend den and pack meetings regularly and the boy promises to do his best to be a good Cub Scout.
- Health information form. The parent completes the Annual Health and Medical Record (Parts A and B) and gives it to the unit leader (the link will take you to a PDF that you can fill out online and save to your computer and/or print).
The parent signs an agreement to
- Help with advancement.
- Attend monthly pack meetings.
- Take part in other den and pack activities.
- Assist den and pack leaders.
Annual fees and dues are as follows:
$16.00 for National registration and insurance*
$12.00 for Boy's Life magazine (optional)
Since the Pack 350 charter begins on January 1st, new Cub Scouts may pay prorated fees and

Scout families may pay additional fees for Den activities and supplies and also for Pack activities such as campouts, field trips, Pinewood Derbies, and our annual Blue & Gold Banquet. These costs may vary and are determined by the pack budget, popcorn sales, and other fundraising successes.
