Hello from North Carolina

[celticmusicfan]

Thanks for having me on your forum! I am contemplating on taking a leader role in my sons tiger cub program. Where do I get information on doing schedules,training, and badge requirements. I am a Army vet and would like to run a organized unit, but with lots of fun things for the boys. I am currently creating a website for the pack so we can share our projects with others. Any help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks for the help,

Scott

Welcome

 

I too am in NC. I started as a leader last year. This year I am Cubmaster and still learning. Just got back from camping a few hours ago and I am exhausted. If you find out one thing before the rest of us then you will be a step ahead, where do the boys get the energy.

 

Any way, if you want you can PM me and we can talk more through e-mail or other methods depending on your location.

Start with training. Cub SCout Fast Start, Youth Protection, New Leader Essentials, and Tiger Den Leader Specific.

 

Some of it is now available on-line.

I concur with Scoutldr. Follow his suggestions and also attend the monthly Cub Roundtables. I am also in NC, (Triad area). By chance do I know of you from another (celtic related) forum? Please PM me if I can be of assistance to you. I am involved in Boy Scout training for my council and maybe I can help you with some local specifics.

Glad to have you on the boards. I've had the fortune to work in about half the councils in NC. Some really good camps in state.

We are using PackMaster for this administrative part of managing the pack. You can download a limited-use fully operational demo version from the TroopMaster software page.
