Introduction to Cub Scouts

Cub Scout Packs 39 and 55 and Troops 39 & 55 will host a special evening event to give a "Taste of Scouting" to anyone interested, starting at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Plattsburgh United Methodist Church on Beekman Street.

Cub events will include racing cars on a Pinewood Derby track and racing sailboats in a Raingutter Regatta. Scouts will demonstrate camping skills and provide the campfire for making s'mores.

Cub Scouting is designed as a family-centered program, and the entire family is invited to participate each week.

Boy Scouting provides training in leadership skills and group teamwork.
