    Cub Scouting: 

    A New Delivery Method

    Letter to Den & Pack Leaders

    Beginning September 2010, Cub Scout den and pack meeting will use a New Delivery Method, originally known as Cub Scouts 2010.  Replacing the traditional den and pack meeting model of using monthly themes, den meeting activities will now center around advancement requirements.  As a result, new program materials have been written and the current version of Cub Scout Leader Position-Specific Training is being revised to address these program changes.

    Development of materials to support the rollout of the new deliver methods of Cub Scouting is nearly complete.  The training syllabus and other supporting material is available through local Scout shops, as well as www.scoutstuff.org

    New resources include the following:

    Literature:

    • Den & Pack Meeting Resource Guide (printed) - new - replaces Cub Scout Program Helps
    • Den & Pack Meeting Resource Guide (online)  - new - *see note below
    • Cub Scout Leader Book - revised
    • Webelos Leader Guide - revised
    • 2010-2011 Cub Scout Roundtable Guide - new - Roundtable program will now focus on the core values of Cub Scouting rather than monthly themes.
    * The Den and Pack Meeting Resource Guide is available online in two forms: a no-fee download of individual den and pack meeting plans via the National web site, or a for-fee download of the full publication via www.scoutstuff.org.

    Training:

    • Fast Start Training (online) - revised- currently online as of May 5. There is now one "Den Leader Fast Start Training" for Tiger Cub, Cub Scout, and Webelos den leaders.
    • Position Specific Leader Training with CD (literature) - revised
    • As of August 31, Cub Scout Position Specific Leader Training is available online via the E-Learning Center at MyScouting.org.

    In addition, you will begin to see new covers on many other Cub Scout leader publications so that there is a unified look for the brand. New covers will start appearing for the following publications as the Supply Group needs additional inventory. Note, however, that the content remains the same -- the new cover does not make the "old" version obsolete.

    • Cub Scout Leader How-To Book
    • Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program Guide
    • Cub Scout Ceremonies for Dens and Packs
    • BALOO - Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation
