[quote=Anonymous]DS was in Cub Scouts from Tiger (first grade) to AOL (fifth grade). He bridged over with 6 other kids who had started in K or First. One of the boys didn’t join the Den until 4th grade. There were a good number of kids who participated for a couple of years, some moved away and others dropped out for other activities. It was all fine. We had one Scout who only made every third meeting but still bridged.

All of Scouts BSA is what you choose to make of it. The more you participate, the more you get. As a Cub Scout, it is a great opportunity to socialize with other kids while learning about teamwork and developing some basic skills.

One of the reasons Cub Scouts worked for us is that it is a year round activity (there are activities in the summer that you can choose to participate in) and the kids have a chance to socialize during meetings as well as participate in the activities. The activities change every meeting so it is not repetitive. It allows kids to build to something, rank, in a safe way. A Scout can make up activities that they miss with their parents at home.

One note, each Pack/Troop has it’s own identity and runs it’s own way. Some Packs are more active then others. Some are larger then others, you might want to check out a few in your area to see what works best for you. And it is fine to move to a new Pack/Troop. [/quote]
