Welcome!

Whether you volunteer as a leader, on a committee, or work with your scout at home, parents and guardians are key to the Scouting experience.  We hope you and your scout will enjoy a long relationship in Scouting.  We hope you and family enjoy being involved in Scouting and the many skills it builds while having fun!

We also love parent volunteers, and they are the glue of a pack.  If you would like to be a leader, co-leader, be a chairperson or assist in one of our many pack activities during the year, please send your questions to our Committee Chairperson, Kathy Ferdig or Cubmaster, Terie Weidemann

The High Desert Scout Shop will have everything you need and will make sure you know where patches go and that you have all the correct ones.  Just tell them the Pack and Grade your Scout is in (or going into if you register before summer).

They will need the handbook appropriate to their grade, and you’ll need you to pay the pack registration dues each year.

They will want a uniform which includes:

Lion T-shirt or blue shirt for Lions

·       Blue shirt – for Cub Scouts (Tigers, Wolves & Bears)

·       Tan shirt – for Webelos and Arrow of Light Scouts

·   Pack specific T-Shirt (Class B Uniform) You will get this from the Pack, not the scout shop.

·   Neckerchief– appropriate to their grade.  The Scout Shop can help.

·   Neckerchief slide – holds the neckerchief together.  You might want to buy two.  Kids lose these often.

·   Scout pants/shorts, leggings (girls) or skorts (girls) (Optional) – blue for Cubs, green for Webelos/Arrow of Light.  

        The Scout Shop can help.

·   Belt– appropriate for their group.

·   Hat– appropriate for their age group.  Hair ribbons are also available.

·   Patches– Unit Patch “174” - purchased at the pack - they are not sold at the scout shop.
