We rely on parent volunteers for a successful Cub Scout program

• Parents turn over every 3-4 years.  We must always be recruiting.
• Volunteering allows you to experience Scouting in a new way.
• Our philosophy is many hands make light work!

Den Leaders

Den Leaders volunteers

Den Leaders are the most consequential volunteer role in Cub Scouts.  We cannot run the Cub Scout program without Den Leaders.  Sometimes two parents will share duties as Co-Leaders which can reduce the work load.  Pack 4480 has resources and guidance to support our Den Leaders, all you need is a willing attitude!

The administrative duties of the pack are spread across the members of the Pack Committee.  Keeping these key position filled is vital to the success of Pack 4480.
