What we believe, what we promise, and the basics:

 

Cub Scouting Ideals
Apart from the fun and excitement of Cub Scout activities, a number of ideals are
expressed in the day-to-day life of the boy and his leaders.



Cub Scout Colors
The Cub Scout colors are blue and gold.
 The blue stands for truth and spirituality, steadfast loyalty, and the sky above.
The gold stands for warm sunlight, good cheer, and happiness.
Together, they symbolize what Cub Scouting is all about.

The Cub Scout Handshake

                  

 

                  

 

The How To

 

1.   HOLD OUT YOUR RIGHT HAND JUST AS YOU ALWAYS DO TO SHAKE HANDS.

 

2.  PUT YOUR FIRST TWO FINGERS ALONG THE INSIDE OF THE OTHER BOYS WRIST.

 

 

The Why:

The Cub handshake means that you "HELP" and that you "OBEY" the Law of the Pack

 

The When:

When you shake hands with another scout or scout leader.

 

The Cub Scout Sign

 

The How To:

1. Make the sign with your right hand

2. And with your arm held straight up

 


The Why:

The two fingers stand for the two parts of the Cub Scout Promise - "TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE" and "TO OBEY."

 

They look like a wolf’s ears ready to listen to Akela.

The When:

Give the Cub Scout sign when you say the
"Cub Scout Promise" and the "Law of the Pack"  or when Akela raises the sign to ask for silence.

      

 

 

The Cub Scout Salute

 

The How To:       1. SALUTE WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND.

2. HOLD YOUR FINGERS AS YOU DO FOR THE CUB SCOUT SIGN.

3. KEEP THE TWO STRAIGHT FINGERS CLOSE TOGETHER.

4. TOUCH THE TIPS OF THOSE FINGERS TO YOUR CAP.

5. IF YOU ARE NOT WEARING A CAP, TOUCH YOUR EYEBROW.


The Why:            A salute is a way to show respect to your leaders.     It shows that you look
                            up to them and respect them.   We salute the flag to show respect to our country.

 

The When:         When you say the pledge of allegiance while in your Cub Scout uniform
