How to visit a meeting
Pack 60 meets Tuesdays at 7:00 PM at Suncrest United Methodist Church, 479 Van Voorhis Road, in Morgantown, WV.
Families interested in visiting should contact the pack first at cubmaster.pack60wv@gmail.com. A volunteer can confirm that week’s schedule, welcome your family when you arrive, and introduce your child to the right grade-level den.
Families can also follow the Pack 60 Facebook page for current public announcements and a look at recent activities.
How to register
When your family is ready, registration is completed through Pack 60’s official BeAScout listing. Pack volunteers can answer questions and help you complete the process.
What new families should expect
New families should expect a welcoming environment, age-appropriate activities, parent involvement, and a mix of den meetings, pack meetings, outings, service, and special events. Den meetings are usually age-specific, while pack meetings bring everyone together for activities, recognition, and shared pack fun.
You do not need to know anything about Scouting or outdoor activities before contacting us. Pack volunteers and other families help new scouts learn one step at a time.
After joining, families complete the Pack 60 welcome forms, provide a frequently checked email address and cell phone number for each participating adult, and join the pack’s GroupMe. GroupMe is Pack 60’s primary channel for general announcements; pack leadership provides the current invitation directly to registered families.
Each year, every Cub Scout also completes the exercises in Scouting America’s How to Protect Your Children from Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide with a parent or guardian as part of the Bobcat Adventure requirement.
Estimated costs
Costs may include national registration fees, local pack dues, a handbook, uniform items, and optional activity expenses. Pack 60 dues help cover advancement awards, pack camping needs, Pinewood Derby cars, and basic pack expenses.
The current welcome packet also asks each family to make one annual fundraising commitment: participate in Pack 60 fundraising or make a one-time $250 donation for the Scout year. Because registration fees and dues can change, Pack 60 confirms those current amounts directly with interested families. If cost is a concern, let a pack volunteer know; financial issues will not prevent a child from participating, and the pack can help.
Uniform basics
Pack 60 encourages scouts to wear a complete, neat, rank-appropriate field uniform. The Pack 60 uniform basics resource explains the blue Cub Scout uniform, the tan-and-green Arrow of Light uniform, insignia, and Pack 60 activity shirts. Before buying items, ask pack leadership what is appropriate for your scout’s den and about help obtaining a uniform if needed.
