In 1914, Scouting founder Robert Baden-Powell started a Scouting program based on Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book stories. Take the Cub Scouts on a safari and help them discover fun and adventure in the wilds of Scouting. Learn why Africa is special to our founder Lord Baden-Powell. Find out how the Jungle Book story connects to Scouting. Use it and its characters to highlight den meeting games, crafts, and costumes for the pack meeting. Learn about the things you need if you are going on a safari and how would you survive. What do Scouts in Africa do? What are their uniforms like? Take a den trip to a local zoo, animal rescue facility, or wildlife refuge. Jungle/safari makes a great theme for pack meetings, banquets or day camp. • Pack Meetings: The pack meeting brings all the dens in the pack together for the purposes of recognizing the achievements of the Cub Scouts, communicating information about upcoming events, and providing a program that enriches the Cub Scouting experience. It helps the Cub Scouts realize their den is part of a larger organization. A good pack meeting should be well planned and well organized. Packs meet several times during the year – there is no required number. • Banquets: Most packs celebrate Scouting Anniversary Week in February with a birthday party called the blue and gold banquet; some packs do end of the year banquets.

  • Welcome to St Mary Gillingham Mowgli Cub Pack
    Welcome to St Mary Gillingham Mowgli Cub Pack Scouting is one of the great success stories of the last 100 years. From an experimental camp for 20 boys on Brownsea Island in 1907, it has spread to 216 countries and territories, with an estimated 28 million members. Cubs is the second section of the Scouting movement, between Beavers and Scouts, originally started in 1916 for younger brothers who wanted to get involved. The section has constantly evolved and adapted what it does to meet member needs, and these days admits girls as well as boys. Cub Scouts are young people aged between 8 and 10 ½ who make up a Cub Pack A Pack of Cub Scouts is organised into Sixes. Each Six is named after a colour, with a Sixer and a Seconder in charge. Your pack is called Mowgli and we meet every Monday night during School Term at 7.00-8.30pm. On a pack night we have fun as a group playing active games like dodge ball and splat. We will do badge work like first aid and navigation. We also spend a lot of time outside building shelters and playing wide games. Every year you will have the chance to go on summer camp where we sleep in tents, have fun round the camp fire singing songs and performing stunts. We learn new skills like knotting and pioneering. We will go for hikes and earn more badges! You will even get the chance to go to an activity centre and try out abseiling, canoeing, climbing, archery and much more.

  • About Scouting
    Chapter01 WCLH Eng 09.qxd 4/30/09 9:13 AM Page 1 Chapter 1 - All About Scouting To understand how Cubbing can meet a Cub’s needs, let’s examine what Scouts Canada is trying to accom- plish. We’ll look at Scouting’s Principles and Mission, then see how Cubbing meets the Principles and Mission through the Cub program goals. Finally, we’ll see how to turn these into activities for Cubs through Scouting’s Practices. Scouting’s Principles Scouting is based on three broad principles, which represent its fundamental beliefs. Duty to God This is defined as: “Adherence to spiritual principles, loyalty to the religion that expresses them and acceptance of the duties resulting therefrom.” Duty to Others This is defined as: “Loyalty to one’s country in harmony with the promotion of local, national and international peace, understanding and cooperation,” and “Participation in the development of society, with recognition and respect for the dignity of one’s fellow-being and for the integrity of the natural world.” Duty to Self This is defined as: “Responsibility for the development of oneself.” This is in harmony with the educational purpose of the Scout Movement whose aim is to assist young people in the full development of their potential. Scouting’s core philosophy and values are expressed by the Principles. These form a “code of ethics” for how Scouting expects all members to conduct themselves while participating in activities. Cub Promise, Law and Motto The Cub Promise, Law, and Motto express the Principles in Cub terms. The Cub Promise I promise to do my best To love and serve God; To do my duty to the Queen; To keep the Law of the Wolf Cub pack; And to do a good turn for somebody every day.
