Pack 1365 offers a mix of outdoor adventures, hands-on activities, service projects, and classic Cub Scout traditions throughout the school year.

Some of our regular activities include:

• Pinewood Derby
• Raingutter Regatta
• Fall and spring campouts
• Scouting for Food
• Occoquan cleanup
• Fishing tournament
• Holiday party
• Other service projects and Pack activities

Our goal is to give Scouts fun, memorable experiences while helping them build confidence, friendships, leadership skills, and a heart for serving others.

Pack 1365 is run by families, and there are many ways to help.

Some parents serve as den leaders, committee members, event helpers, campout volunteers, advancement coordinators, or behind-the-scenes support. Others help with one event or activity when they can.

You do not need to know everything about Scouting to volunteer. Training and support are available, and we are always happy to help new volunteers find a role that fits their time, comfort level, and interests. We highly encourage all parents to play an active role in their child(s) ' Cub Scout experience, but it isn't required.

New families are welcome to reach out to Pack 1365, visit a meeting, or attend a Join Scouts Night when we hold one near the start of the school year.

After registration, Pack leaders will help you connect with your child’s den, share meeting details, and answer questions about uniforms, fees, events, and getting started.

Yes. Annual membership costs can vary, but families usually plan for up to about $400 per year.

This helps cover national and council registration, Pack activities, awards, supplies, and programming. Pack fees help fund items such as the neckerchief, handbook, derby car, Raingutter Regatta materials, trophies, camping twice a year, and other Pack activities.

We never want fees to prevent a child from participating in Scouting. If cost is a concern, please contact us. We will work with families whenever possible.

Scouts typically wear the Cub Scout uniform for their rank, which usually includes the official Cub Scout shirt and required patches. Families may also choose to purchase additional uniform pieces, such as pants, belt, or hat, but Pack leaders can help explain what is truly needed to get started.

Pack 1365 fees usually help cover the neckerchief and handbook.

We also understand that uniforms can be expensive. Please reach out if uniform costs are a concern. We never want money to stand in the way of a child joining or participating in Pack 1365.

A den is a smaller group of Scouts who are usually in the same grade level. Dens meet regularly to work on age-appropriate adventures, learn new skills, play games, and build friendships.

A Pack is made up of all the dens together, from kindergarten through 5th grade. Pack meetings and Pack activities bring everyone together for awards, games, service projects, campouts, and special events.

In simple terms:
Dens are grade-level groups. The Pack is everyone together.

What are the different dens? What den would my child be in?

Cub Scout dens are organized by grade level:

Lion and Tiger Scouts participate with an adult partner, usually a parent or guardian. As Scouts get older, they grow more independent while still being supported by adult leaders and families.

When your child joins Pack 1365, we will help place them in the correct den based on their grade.
