Parent Involvement

Parents play an important role in the Pack regardlesss of if they have a formal leadership position. All the leaders of Pack 843 are volunteers and have many other obligations, it takes everyone to help out at one time or another. We understand parents have other obligations and may feel they are too busy to take on any additional duties, but we depend on parents to help provide the good program we have. 


We will ask every parent – including you – to help the pack in some capacity with our activities. All parents/adults should take Youth Protection Training which is available anytime online at http://my.scouting.org.  Not only does it make you ready to help out when needed, it also helps you fully understand the policies and practices the Boys Scout of America has implemented to protect our youth.


Cub Scouting is a family activity, and Den/Pack meetings are a great place for family involvement.  There are many ways to help the Pack be successful and every parent can bring unique contributions to the Pack.
