The 10 purposes of Cub Scouting are:

*Character Development
*Spiritual Growth
*Good Citizenship
*Sportsmanship and Fitness
*Family Understanding
*Respectful Relationships
*Personal Achievement
*Friendly Service
*Fun and Adventure
*Preparation for Boy Scouts!

Our Mission:
Our mission is to deliver to the boys and their families in the Aumsville area the Cub Scout Program developed by the Boy Scouts of America. We will do our best to deliver the highest quality program possible.

Vision:
We will offer a high quality program to all boys in grades one through five. Our sons will advance in rank each year, beginning with Tiger Cubs and continuing through the Arrow of Light in fifth grade. We will encourage our boys to continue the fun, adventure and development of Scouting by graduating into a Boy Scout Troop. We hope each of our Scouts will continue to advance in the Scouting program, not because of the badge of rank they will earn but because of what they will learn about themselves,their families, others, God and their country.

Our Scouts, families, adult leaders and volunteers work together to teach these values by:
*Influencing each Scout's character development and spiritual growth
*Developing habits and attitudes of good citizenship
*Encouraging good sportsmanship and pride in growing strong in mind and body
*Improving understanding and communication within the family
*Strengthening skills in getting along with and respecting others
*Fostering a sense of personal achievement by developing new interests and skills
*Providing fun and exciting things to do
*Showing each Scout how to "do your best"
*Preparing each Cub Scout to become a Boy Scouts.
