Cub Scouts usually meet once a
week as a Pack, under the supervision of a trained team
of adult Leaders led by the Cub Scout Leader, usually
known to the Cub Scouts as Akela. The Pack is divided
into Sixes, each named after a colour and led by a Cub
Scout called a Sixer, and their Second.

Cub Scouts are boys and girls aged
between 8 and 10 years, who like challenge and adventure.
The Cub Scout Section is the second of four Sections which
make up The Scout Association in Scotland .
|
|
Helping others forms
an important part of Cub Scouting - fundraising
for other charities, conservation projects and
working with the elderly and those with special
needs are just a few of the good turns'
regularly performed by Cub Scouts in the local
community.
|
|
These activities
offer, through the Cub Scout Programme, the
opportunity to achieve awards and badges. These
awards are presented in recognition of the
effort made by each youngster at their own level
of ability.
|
|
Leaders are encouraged to approach each of
these areas in a variety of ways by
including activities sometimes close to the
Beaver Scouts' own experiences, sometimes
based in the local community and sometimes
introducing them to issues in the wider
world.
