The Cub Scout Outdoor Program

Cub Scouts do fun things with other kids! They get to wear a cool uniform, go places, and see things. They play all kinds of sports and build things, like race cars and bird houses. Want to learn a secret code? Want to learn about wild animals? If you're a boy in the first through fifth grades, go Cub Scouting!

Here's a link to learn more about our 2006-2007 Cub Worlds held at Camp Brorein (near Odessa), Flaming Arrow Scout Reservation (near Lake Wales) and, for the first time, at McGregor-Smith Scout Reservation (near Inverness). 

If you still have questions, drop an email to us to the Cub Scout Camping Information Center.  See you all at camp!
