Who leads the Den and the Den meetings?
• Each Den has one parent who volunteers to be the Den Leader. The Den Leader is responsible for organizing the meetings and events in such a way that all of the scouts have the opportunity to accomplish their advancement requirements. They are also responisible for tracking accomplishments, for submitting accomplishments to the Boy Scouts for official recognition, and for the general health and safety of the Den during meetings and events. The Den Leader needs to have a lot of help and cooperation from the other parents of the scouts in that Den. Most Dens also have another parent who helps as the Assistant Den Leader. Some Dens ask the parents to lead some of the Den meetings.
