Fox Island's first Lion Cubs!

The Lion Cub program is a Scouting program for Kindergarten boys and girls. Like all Scouting programs, it weaves the concepts of character development, leadership skills, personal fitness, and citizenship into activities that are age-appropriate and fun.

The activities introduce the family to Cub Scouting, and provide an exciting way for the little guys & girls to explore the world around them.  The program will fuel their imagination, creativity and fun as they experience the growth Scouting can provide.

At the end of the kindergarten year, Lions will “graduate” into Cub Scouting as a Tiger – where even more fun and adventure will await!

Cub Scout Pack 27 is affiliated with Boy Scout Troop 277, also sponsored by FICRA.
Fox Island boys ages 7 - 10 years old are encouraged to join Pack 27.
