Cub Scout Membership Hub

In most cases, a young person and their family can join Scouting at any time during the year.  However, there is a specific effort to recruit new members in the fall of each year as the school term begins.  The Washington Crossing Council works closely with Cub Scout packs to organize these efforts.

There are a number of digital resources available for pack leadership to use to assist in recruiting efforts:
