Dear Parents,
Welcome to the fun and enriching world of scouting with Pack 608 from Epiphany Lutheran Church in Suwanee. First let me congratulate you for taking the time to enroll your son in Cub Scouts. We understand that today’s families are facing greater and greater demands on their time, but I truly believe that the Scouting program is an excellent place for our youth to learn character development and values-based leadership training that will give them a great start in the world. Scouting trains our children in citizenship, service and leadership.
In this and other documents in this section we will endeavor to answer as many of the questions asked by new and returning Cub Scout parents as we can to help you and your son get a great start in Scouting.
Cub Scouts is a program for families with boys, thus Pack 608 strongly encourages family involvement. Pack activities are always for families. Pack 608 puts on a high quality Cub Scout program, but this only happens with parents actively involved. If you are looking for a program where you can drop your son off for an hour a week, then Cub Scouting may not be the best place for your family. However, if you are looking for a program that will provide your family with opportunities to work and play together, to have fun together, and to get to know each other better, then Pack 608 hopes you will consider joining.
Continuing our commitment to providing a safe environment for your boys, we are requiring all parents complete the Boy Scouts of America online Youth Protection Training course. This course will help you keep your children, and other children that you come in contact with, safe both inside the Scouting program and outside. See the following link for instructions:
