Cub Scouts (grades 1-5)
Both Wellesley Cub Scout packs offer a year-round family program designed for boys and girls in kindergarten through the 5th grade, or 6 to 10 years of age. The program emphasizes shared leadership, learning about the community, family understanding, character development, citizenship training, and personal fitness. Children meet once a month for a den meeting (based on grade) and for a pack meeting (all kids, grades K-5.) Throughout the year, there are exciting overnight outings (accompanied by parents) at places like the EcoTarium, Museum of Science, Battleship Cove, Plymouth Plantation, and Nobscot Reservation. Everyone works on age-appropriate achievements at home, to earn badges which are awarded at pack meetings (Pack 140) or the yearly Blue & gold advancement dinner (Pack 185).
- Pack 140 welcomes all kids and all families from the Hardy, Fiske, Sprague, Schofield, Hunnewell and other elementary schools. Pack 140 meets in the basement Assembly Room of the Wellesley Hills Congregational Church at 207 Washington Street, Wellesley, MA.
- Pack 185 is chartered by Bates Elementary School. Meeting locations vary.
