Run by parents,
for our kids.
Nobody here is paid. Every meeting, campout and derby car is put together by parents who decided it was worth the evening.
Pack leadership
The Cubmaster runs pack meetings; den leaders run everything at the grade level. These are the people your Scout actually sees.
Pack committee
The committee handles registration, money, advancement records, rechartering and the logistics behind every event — so den leaders can spend their time with the Scouts.
Reach any of them through info@pack223.com — we keep personal contact details off the public site.
We have open roles — and they're smaller than they sound
Right now we're looking for an Assistant Cubmaster, a Lion den leader for our incoming kindergarteners, and assistant den leaders across the pack. Training is free, online, and takes an evening. Nobody is thrown in without support.
What we're all signed up to
Everything in the pack — every meeting, every campout, every award — points back at these.
The Scout Oath
On my honor I will do my best
to do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
to help other people at all times;
to keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
The Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.
The Cub Scout motto: Do Your Best.
About the pack
Pack 223 is chartered in Lafayette, California and meets at Happy Valley Elementary School. We are part of the Briones District of the Golden Gate Area Council, Scouting America.
The pack is open to boys and girls in kindergarten through 5th grade, from Happy Valley and from anywhere else in the area. Scouting America is open to all youth, and financial assistance is available to any family who needs it — ask the committee chair or the treasurer, and it goes no further.
