What is Seasonal Cub Scouting?
The Seasonal Cub Scout Program is a flexible way for families to experience Cub Scouting through a series of themed, short-term programs held throughout the year. Each season features a structured set of activities designed to introduce youth to the fun, skills, and values of Scouting.
Rather than a traditional year-round pack, this program allows families to participate in individual seasonal sessions, making it easy to try Cub Scouts without a long-term commitment.
Each seasonal program includes a series of weekly meetings where Scouts participate in hands-on activities, outdoor skills, games, and themed adventures. Sessions conclude with a special culminating event or challenge that brings the season’s theme to life.
The program is open to youth in grades 2–4, and no previous Scouting experience is required.
Program Outline
Each seasonal session typically includes:
• 9–12 weekly meetings
• A fun, engaging theme that guides the activities
• Hands-on learning and outdoor skills
• Games, teamwork, and problem-solving challenges
• A final racing adventure and awards recognition event
Scouts will explore many of the core elements of Cub Scouting while enjoying a program designed to fit into busy family schedules.
