Q: Can I bring my pet to a den or pack activity?

A: The only time a pet should be brought to a den or pack activity, is if that pet is an integral part of the den or pack activity and prior arrangements with the leaders have been made. Otherwise, please leave your pets at home.

Q: Are siblings of scouts allowed to attend den and pack activities?

A: Many den and pack activities outside of reguarly scheduled den meetings are family friendly and we encourage siblings to share in the experience. If you are unsure if an event is specifically for scouts or Akelas, contact your den or pack leader for clarification.

Although regular den meetings are generally geared specifically toward the scouts themselves, sometimes it is necessary for a sibling to come along. By all means bring them along in this case. We'd much rather you come than skip a meeting because of childcare arrangements.

Q: Are there electrical and plumbing hookups for RV's at Cub Scout campouts?

A: If your Recreational Vehicle will fit in a backpack and can be carried to your campsite on your back, then by all means, bring it along.

Q: Can I bring alcohol or tobacco to an overnight campout?

A: Alcohol of any type is strictly prohibited at ANY cub scout sanctioned activity. Smoking is strongly discouraged, although there are specific smoking areas designated located away from the scouts and others.

Q: Are firearms allowed at a campout?

A: Unless you are a Police Officer or an active member of the Military and are authorized to carry a firearm, leave your firearms at home.

Q: Are portable electronic games such as a GameBoy allowed at pack activities?

A: Electronic handheld games should not be brought to any pack or den activity. These devices are distracting and do not belong at any Cub Scout function.
