Special Meetings/Events
The Pack may hold special meetings or events during the year in which the boys can/should participate. The special meetings may be held during the day or evening hours and may often be on a Saturday or Sunday.
Den/Patrol/Pack
Boys are placed into groups based on age/grade called
Dens or
Patrols. Scouts in Tiger, Wolf, and Bear groups form Dens, whereas Scouts in Webelos I and Arrow of Light (Webelos II) groups form Patrols (similar to Boys Scouts). A
Pack meeting is when Scouts from all Dens and/or Patrols come together to meet as a unit. A Pack meeting is typically where a Scout receives the awards and recognition he deserves for the achievements accomplished during the Den/Patrol meetings.
