From staff reports
Cub Scout Pack 37, of Franklin, will hold a sign-up event for the Family Scouting program at 6:30 p.m. Monday at the Sandycreek fire hall.
Boys and girls in kindergarten through fifth grade may participate in hands-on activities and learn more about Scouting.
The Family Cub Scout program is offered by the Boy Scouts of America as a way to help children learn about leadership, conservation, citizenship, community service and outdoor ethics.
Weekly meetings are typically held on Mondays at various spots in the Franklin area, including the Sandycreek fire hall. Many of the current members live in the Franklin and Valley Grove school districts, but families from all communities are welcome to join.
For most meetings, children will meet in smaller groups, known as dens, based on age and gender. Once a month all members of the pack will meet for large group activities and educational activities at the fire hall.
Interested children and their parents or guardians can sign up for all levels of Cub Scouts at Monday’s meeting. Registrations are accepted throughout the year.
For additional information, call Cubmaster Jill Harry at (814) 673-9191.
Information is also available online at the Cub Scout Pack 37 Facebook page and www.beascout.org.
