Brief History of Scouting

Cub Scouting was founded in 1916 by Lord Baden-Powell, 
9 years after he founded Boy Scouting. By following the 
story from The Jungle Book (by Rudyard Kipling), the pack 
has a life as the Seeonee Pack did. Akela, the oldest 
wolf was the chief of the pack who had led the pack to a 
successful life. Besides Akela, the pack still had some 
other Jungle Masters such as Bear Baloo, Bobcat Bagheera, 
Elephant Hathi, Bird Chil and Snake Kaa to support the 
Pack’s activities. Mowgli was a boy who was raised in the 
jungle for a period of time before being returned to the 
mankind village. Just as Mowgli, a cub scout in a cub pack 
would have a similar life. He would learn many things to 
enable him to survive under the difficulties and obstacles 
of the jungle.

Pack 831 was re-organized in 1996 after an absence of 3 
years.  We have been working hard and have accomplished 
many things over the past two years and hope to have yet 
another successful year ahead.  

Scouting would not be possible without the dedication of 
our Volunteer Leaders and Assistants. We also commend all 
the parents who help and participate in our activities, as 
cub scouting is where we all grow into better people, young 
and old.



BOBCAT REQUIREMENTS
All Cub Scouts must obtain their Bobcat Rank
before moving on to their Wolf, Bear or Webelos Rank.

Bobcat is a Rank advancement within the Wolf, Bear or Webelos 
den. When a boy becomes a Cub Scout, his parent helps teach 
him his Bobcat requirements:  Learning the Cub Scout Promise, 
Law of the Pack, handshake, salute, sign, and motto and explain 
what each one means.
