Cub Scouts also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, theme parks, swimming or a farm. . Sometimes they will be able to go camping with the rest of the Pack and take part in all kinds of outdoor activities.

Structure and Organisation A Pack of Cub Scouts is organised into smaller groups called Sixes, usually with older Cubs called a Sixer and a Seconder in charge. Each Six adopts a colour and wears a woggle of that colour to identify each Six.

Membership Award Once you've made your Promise, you'll earn your Membership Award, featuring an image of the fleur de lis. This is the international Scout symbol, worn by Scouts all over the world.

Chief Scout's Silver Award This is the highest award a Cub can earn. To complete it, you need to earn six Activity or Staged Activity Badges of your choice, as well as all seven of the Challenge Awards.

Challenge Awards are all about stepping outside your comfort zone. Try out something you wouldn't normally be interested in. Take the lead on something that scares you. Along the way, you'll unlock hidden talents and stand tall.
