Tiger
Cubs is an exciting program
Tiger Cub is for
first-grade boys and adult family members. You
and your Tiger Cub will have many wonderful
opportunities to search out new activities, discover
new things, and share them with each other.
Incidentally, "Search, Discover, Share" is the Tiger
Cub motto.
The activities are
designed so that you and your Tiger Cub can take part
in them together. Other family members, as well, can
participate in many of these activities.
An important goal of the
program is to offer your Tiger Cub all kinds of new
activities and fun - things that he can do with you.
But another goal is to strengthen the bond of the
entire family.
During the time your boy
is a Tiger Cub, we want to impart some ideals of the
Boy Scouts of America to him - ideals such as personal
fitness, reverence for God, love of country, and
caring for others.
We also want to help you
build a closer relationship with your Tiger Cub. We
want to offer you opportunities to share your ideals,
values, and dreams with your Tiger Cub. In addition,
we believe that self-esteem and self-confidence are
especially important, and building those things in
your Tiger Cub is another goal.
Tiger Cub dens are part
of a Cub Scout pack, and members of the pack hope your
Tiger Cub will become a Cub Scout after his time in
Tiger Cubs. It should be noted that Tiger Cubs is a
nine-month program.
Amid all these goals for
your Tiger Cub, there is one other goal we want to
stress. And that goal is fun - fun
for your Tiger Cub, fun for you, and fun the two of
you can enjoy together.
There have been some
major changes in the Tiger Cub program this year.
Tiger Dens are being organized more like the other Cub
Scout dens are - with a dedicated leader, with
achievements, and with a badge of rank that can be
earned once certain requirements have been met.
The Boy Scouts of
America wants you and your Tiger Cub to:
- Have fun together
- Know one another
- Grow together
- Get along together
- Discover together
