Isn’t Cub Scouts just for boys?
No! Cub Scouts is for any boy or girl who wants fun and adventure. For over 100 years, Cub Scouts was a boys-only program. In 2018, the BSA opened Cub Scouts to girls, and in 2025, the Boy Scouts of America officially became Scouting America, marking its 115th anniversary.
Since 2018, Pack 3807 has proudly welcomed both boys and girls!
Are LGBTQ and gender-diverse youth welcome?
Yes! Pack 3807 is a safe, inclusive, and welcoming group for all youth—regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. Scouting America’s official policy is that both youth and adult leaders may join, no matter their sexual orientation or gender identity.
Is Scouting a religious-based program?
Not at all. While many Packs (including 3807) are sponsored by faith communities such as churches, mosques, synagogues, or temples, Scouting itself is not religious-based and does not promote any particular faith.
Pack 3807’s charter partner is First English Lutheran Church, which provides space and support as a community service—not as a religious requirement. Our Pack is diverse, with Scouts from many faith traditions, including Hindu, Jewish, Christian, and more.
What about youth who are not religious?
One point of the Scout Law is to be Reverent, which refers broadly to respect for beliefs. This is interpreted differently by different Scouts and families:
-
Some practice a religion with one God, many gods, or none at all.
-
Some identify as spiritual without being religious.
As long as a Scout holds personal beliefs that are religious or spiritual in nature—defined by them—they are welcome in Pack 3807.
Can youth with disabilities participate?
Absolutely! Pack 3807 welcomes all youth, regardless of disability or special needs. While a few activities may need adjustments, most of our program is accessible to everyone. Please reach out if your Scout has specific needs—we’ll work with you to make sure they can participate fully.
