Ready to get started with Pack 36? Because we are a Family Pack, boys and girls from kindergarten through fifth grade follow the exact same enrollment process. We have broken down what you need to do into a straightforward checklist to get your family ready for the Scouting year.
Before you formally register, we recommend coming to a Pack meeting so you and your child can see what the program is like firsthand. We meet at the K.C. Coombs School here in Mashpee. Check our schedule to find out when the next meeting is happening.
To officially join Scouting America, you need to fill out the online application. This registers your child with the national organization and covers their annual insurance and membership fees. Thanks to our annual popcorn sales, Pack 36 charges $0.00 in local dues, making this national registration the only upfront signup fee.
Your child will need a uniform shirt and the handbook designed specifically for their grade level. Most kids wear the standard blue Cub Scout shirt. You can purchase these at the nearest local Scout Shop or order them directly online.
Once your registration and dues are squared away, we will send you an invite to our pack communication app. We use this to manage our calendar, send out meeting updates, and coordinate activities with the rest of the families in the pack.
