New Cub-A-Day Summer Program

June 10, 2020 by The Scouter Digest Staff

Welcome to the new Cub-A-Day Summer Program, where every day there’s an adventure waiting for you and your Cub Scout! For the next 12 weeks we will post new, fun and exciting Cub Scout activities in efforts to keep your Scouts engaged, active and learning. From crafts to exercise to cooking, your Cub Scout will advance in a variety of skills!

We invite all Lions, Tigers, Wolves, and Webelos to join us on this 7 week adventure! And remember if you have a friend interested in Scouting, they can join in on the fun too! For more information on Cub Scout activities and programs please visit ncacbsa.org/summer and be sure to join our new Cub Scout Group on Facebook!
