Pack 219 Cub Scouts

Our SKS Parish sponsors a Cub Scout program (Pack 219) for boys kindergarten through fifth grade. We are a welcoming pack, focused on individual growth, the outdoors, camaraderie, as well as service to God and Country. We welcome those with no Cub Scout experience at all, in addition to Cub Scouts crossing over from other packs. We typically host one pack meeting per month in the SKS Cafeteria and one fun activity per month.
