Cub Scout Pack 9 is part of Boy Scouts of America, Greater Tampa Bay Area Council (Fort Brooke District) and serves kids in kindergarten to fifth grade in northwest Hillsborough County, Florida. We are chartered by American Legion Post 147 (17383 Gunn Hwy, Odessa, FL 33556).
Our pack meets monthly during the school year on the fourth Tuesday of the month at the American Legion at 6:30pm. Pack meetings are a time for awards and recognition, games and competitions, demonstrations and teaching, and announcements of upcoming events.
Our pack is made up of a number of dens. Kids are grouped into dens by their age:
There may be multiple dens of any age group depending on the number of kids in the pack. Dens are lead by an adult Den Leader. There may also be Assistant Den Leaders, and/or a Den Chief. A Den Chief is a Boy Scout (12-18 year old) who assists the Den Leader and helps run the Den. Dens meet one to four times a month outside of pack meetings.
