October
Fall Campout
One weekend, every den, tents in a field. Campfire, cooking, and a hike before breakfast.
Holliston, Massachusetts
Kids belong outside.
Pack 2 is Holliston's Cub Scout pack for boys and girls in kindergarten through fifth grade. We build derby cars, launch rockets, sleep in tents, and march in the Memorial Day parade — together, as families.
What a year looks like
One pack, six dens, and a whole lot of weekends worth showing up for.
Cub Scouting is not a sport with a season. It runs September through June, it works around your family's schedule, and there is no bench. Come to what you can.
Early November
Pumpkin Chuck
Engineering with a very satisfying payoff. Build a launcher, chuck a pumpkin, measure the damage.
Winter
Pinewood Derby
The one everybody knows. Carve a car, race it down the track, learn something about friction.
Spring
Bike Rodeo
Safety checks, helmet fitting, and a skills course. Ends with everyone riding better than they arrived.
Late spring
Rocket Launch
Build it, paint it, launch it, chase it. Ends the year with an actual countdown.
Memorial Day
Memorial Day Parade
Pack 2 marches with the town every Memorial Day. Uniforms pressed, flags up, and no goofing around.

Find your den
Scouts move up a rank every year, and the adventures grow with them.
Dens are grouped by grade. Your Scout joins the den that matches the grade they are entering in September and moves up with the same friends each year.
Lion
KindergartenAn adult partner comes along for every adventure. Short meetings, big fun, first taste of the outdoors.
Tiger
1st gradeStill side by side with a grown-up, but Tigers start earning their own belt loops and leading parts of the meeting.
Wolf
2nd gradeWolves work more independently: knife safety, first aid basics, and their first real campouts with the pack.
Bear
3rd gradeBears build, cook, and take on bigger outdoor challenges. This is the year the Pinewood Derby gets serious.
Webelos
4th grade"We'll Be Loyal Scouts." Webelos start working with Scouts BSA troops and plan more of their own program.
Arrow of Light
5th gradeThe highest rank in Cub Scouting and the bridge into a Scouts BSA troop. Arrow of Light Scouts lead the younger dens.

New families are welcome all year.
Most families join in September, but a Scout can start any month. Come to a meeting first and see whether it clicks — there is no obligation and nothing to buy on the way in.
