How do the meetings work?
Scouting is a boy-lead activity. That is probably the biggest difference you will see between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. A major transition for new Scouts and parents advancing from Webelos is the feeling that they don’t know what’s going on or what they should be doing. Throughout Cub Scouts and Webelos, adult leaders planned every aspect of Pack activities and advancement. In Boy Scouts, however, the boys are responsible for almost everything, including communicating with parents. We encourage you to have your Scout ask the troop leadership, following the “chain of command” beginning with his Patrol Leader, for guidance in any questions he or you might have. This is a very important part of building self confidence and teamwork!
