Children in the same grade meet as a den twice per month at the pavilions at Crozet Park and all children meet once per month as a pack for a special activity. In the den, Cub Scouts develop new skills and interests, they practice sportsmanship and good citizenship, and they learn to do their best, not just for themselves but for the den as well.
