New Scout Information

Welcome to Pack 671!

We look forward to getting to know you and your new Cub Scout. We’ve assembled some information that will help you get started –

If your Scout is in Kindergarten, they’re a Lion. 1st grade is a Tiger Cub. 2nd graders are Wolf Scouts. 3rd Graders are Bear Scouts. 4th Graders are Webelos. 5th graders are Arrow of Light. Your Scout’s Den number does not change as thye progress through the program, however we employ several so it’s best to check with your Scout’s leader to make sure you have the correct one.

For the uniform, you will need to purchase:

Lion T-Shirt for Lion rank.
Blue uniform shirt for Tiger, Wolf, Bear, and Webelos ranks.
Beige uniform shirt for Arrow of Light rank.
Neckerchief, appropriate for your rank.
Corresponding neckerchief slide for your rank.
Purple World Crest patch (sewn about 2 inches) above the left pocket.
Northeast Illinois Council shoulder patch (sewn on left sleeve shoulder seam).
Den number patch (sewn on right sleeve, just below the American Flag).
Red patch vest (we recommend size L or XL to wear through 5th grade) – so you can show off all the awesome patches you’ll collect as a Cub Scout!

The Pack provides the following:

Handbook for your Scout’s current rank.
Northeast Illinois Council round patch for the red patch vest.
Unit Number patch.
Webelos Tri-colors (Webelos Scouts).
Advancement and award patches earned throughout the year.
