Garrard Counties Pack 180 is in need of Volunteers!
Cub Scouting is a year-round program uniquely designed to meet the needs of young boys and girls (kindergarten through fifth grade) and their families. The program offers fun and challenging activities that promote character development and physical fitness.
Due to the COVID-19 Pack 180 has been dormant since 2020 and we would like to see it become active this year, but we need your help! In order to succeed, the cub scouts need leaders that are excited to help them on the scouting trail.
If you are a parent/guardian, former scouter, or community member that might be interested in being a leader for our local Cub Pack we will be having an informational meeting on Tuesday July 26th at 6:00PM at the Garrard Education Center, 324 West Maple Ave.
