Pack 74 Rules and Code of Conduct


Rules for Ormond Beach Cub Scouts – Pack 74

Pack Meetings:

  1. All Pack Meetings will start promptly at the indicated time.
  2. Each Scout must have at least one adult present at each and every Pack Meeting.  Pack Meetings are for the family to support their scout.
  3. It is important for parents to realize their son or daughter takes pride in displaying their accomplishments.  The pack can only be as strong as it’s parents.
  4. Pack 74 lines the scouts up behind their Den number.  Please help us obtain uniformity for all scouts and allow your child to sit with their fellow scouts.
  5. All leaders should be at Pack Meetings at least 15 minutes early to help set up.
  6. If your Den has Opening Ceremony, please have scouts ready at least 15 minutes prior to meeting start time.
  7. Each Den is assigned a specific duty for all events.  We need full cooperation as these duties are fair to all.  For example: if you are on clean-up, please make an effort to stay and help! Thank you for your cooperation.
  8. All Leaders and Scouts are to be in full Class A Uniform for ALL Pack Meetings.
  9. Some Pack Meetings do consist of Uniform Inspection.
  10. iPods, video games and other electronic devices are prohibited.  These devices cause distraction and disruption to meetings and activities.
  11. ALL Parents and Leaders should work together to ensure proper behavior from the scouts at all times, especially once the meeting is over.  There should be no running around the church grounds, stairs or balconies.  A scout it is reverent and should show respect to a place of worship.

Den Meetings:

  1. All Den Meetings must consist of at least 2 Adult Leaders.  One Adult Leader CANNOT be left with scouts on their own.  
  2. All Parents must check in with the Den Leader before and after Den Meetings to be sure that scouts are properly supervised at all times.
  3. It is STRONGLY advised that at least one parent attend all Den Meetings with their Scout. Cub Scouting is family focused an oriented and is meant to help you further develop your relationship with your son or daughter and watch their growth through the program.
  4. TIGER SCOUTS: At least one adult Partner MUST stay with the scout during Den Meetings.
  5. Uniform: Please discuss with your Den Leader which uniform they want you to wear to which Den Activity/event.  Either Class A Uniform or Class B (Pack T-shirt).  Must wear one of these.
  6. Field Trips: All field trips/outings that scouts attend MUST be in full Class A Uniform.
  7. iPods, video games and other electronic devices are prohibited.  These devices cause disruption to meetings and activities.
  8. Bring den dues (if your den does this) and handbook to each meeting.
  9. If a scout disobeys more than three times in one den meeting, they will be asked to leave with their parents.  If parents are not in attendance at the meeting then a phone call will be placed to their parents to pick them up immediately.
  10. Support the Pack by volunteering to help with at least one Pack Meeting or function, or by becoming a member of the Pack Committee.  There are MANY volunteer opportunities available ranging from a single event chair to a year long position and ALL help is GREATLY appreciated!
