Scouting Benefits



Scouting's Bottom Line 

What happens to a Scout?

For every 100 boys who join Scouting, records indicate that:
 
RARELY will one be brought before the juvenile court system 
2 will become Eagle Scouts 
17 will become future Scout volunteers 
12 will have their first contact with a church 
1 will enter the clergy 
5 will earn their church award 
18 will develop a hobby that will last through their adult life 
8 will enter a vocation that was learned through the merit badge system 
1 will use his Scouting skills to save his own life 
1 will use his Scouting skills to save the life of another person 

Scouting's alumni record is equally impressive. 

A recent nation- wide survey of high schools revealed the following information: 

85% of student council presidents were Scouts 
89% of senior class presidents were Scouts 
80% of junior class presidents were Scouts 
75% of school publication editors were Scouts 
71% of football captains were Scouts 

Scouts also account for: 

64% of Air Force Academy graduates 
68% of West Point graduates 
70% of Annapolis graduates 
72% of Rhodes Scholars 
85% of F.B.I. agents 
26 of the first 29 astronauts 

Note: Since this was written the percentage of Eagle Scouts has climbed to nearly 4%. 
The Eagle Scout Service in 1997 announced that the figure was 3.89%.

What is Cub Scouting?

Cub Scouting is a neighborhood centered program for boys in grades one through five.

Cub Scouting was first organized in 1930, when the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) realized that not every boy in the United States was experiencing the fun of Scouting. For years, boys too young to join the Scouting movement - younger brothers, neighbors, and friends had been tagging along on camp outs, service projects, and other fun filled activities with older Scouts but not reaping the full benefits of being a Boy Scout.

To accommodate this younger generation of motivated boys, the BSA created Cub Scouting. An exciting and adventurous program coupled with skills and values development for younger boys, Cub Scouting became an instant hit.

Today, Cub Scouting provides more than two million boys from all backgrounds with healthy doses of constructive fun and an underlying emphasis on traditional values and service.

Cub Scout enrollment is open year round, so you can join at anytime. However, spring and the start of school are usually the most popular times to sign up.

Why Join Pack 337?

 

Cub Scout Pack 337, Part of the Miccosukee District in Pinellas County’s West Central Florida Council, our scouting program is open to boys in Grades 1 through 5. Each grade comprises a “Den,” and all the dens make up the “Pack.”

 Pack 337 has weekly meetings for activities and introduction of skills, as well as occasional weekend outings and camping trips to gain real life experience with skills learned. Each scout is always accompanied by his “Akela,” a parent or other sponsoring adult who helps that boy attain his achievements through attendance and work at home.

 The Cub Scout motto is “Do Your Best!” Cub Scouting is an opportunity for families to participate in a positive program to help boys grow through character development, skill building, citizenship, and personal fitness.

 Pack 337 meets on Thursday evenings at 6:30pm.  We meet at First Baptist Church located at 5495 Park Boulevard.  We meet weekly on the third floor and the last Thursday of the month we meet on the second floor, for the big pack meeting.
