Rules and Regulations

Attendance

In order to get the most out of the Cub Scouts experience, an attendance policy has been set. Attendance for each Cub Scout will be closely monitored by leaders and lack of attendance and participation may end in dismissal from the troop. Cub Scouts are expected to meet AT LEAST 80% of annual attendance for all Pack activities.

Absences

3 Tardies = 1 Absence
3 Absents = Cub Scout will not be promoted to the next rant, nor he will get any patch/award.

Tardies

Cub Scouts have a 10-minute grace period from the time a meeting/activity begins in which they can arrive. If arrival will be late, please inform a leader at least 30 minutes in advance. Please do not call-in last minute; leaders are often busy with getting the meeting started.

Communication

No announcements about Pack’s meeting or events in J/K; communication is always done via email
Cub Scouts and Parents are responsible for providing any updated email addresses or issues with email ahead of time. Cub Scouts and parents are also responsible for checking their emails up to 12 hours before an event or a meeting.
Our emails are sent via digitally signed service and shouldn’t land in your email’s SPAM box, unless you explicitly mark it as one.
Our Pack’s calendar and Events Page is regularly updated; please visit often to make sure you are not missing any event / updates
As a general guideline (some exceptions applies), we try to send out email of any upcoming Event (usually on Sundays) by Wednesdays.
Any emails send to the pack (at admin@pack758.com), will be answered within 72 hours; although we strive to respond earlier, but that may not be the case every time you send an email.
Last minutes schedule changes do occur, so please check your email regularly.

Uniform

It is imperative that the proper uniform is worn in order to represent Cub Scouts in a professional and appropriate manner. Uniforms are to be worn at meetings, activities, and service events unless otherwise specified by the leader.
Full uniform includes all required articles of clothing including, but not limited to, Shirt, Pants, Scarf, Slide, Belt, Socks, Shoes, etc. All badges should be sewn in proper places. The basic rule is neatness.

Transportation

Transportation will not be provided by the Cub Scouts. Parents will be responsible to arrange their own carpools and rides to any event, meeting, etc.

Respect

Respect each individual you interact within Cub Scouts.
This includes:

Everyone in your Pack.
Cub master and Assistant Cub master.
Den and Assistant Den Leaders.
Showing disrespect to ANY individual in your pack will result in an immediate contact with a parent and a possible probation.

Behavior/Discipline

Cub Scouts are role models to all other packs, as well as others in Jamat Khana.
Cubs should be on their best behavior at all times, especially when wearing their uniform.
Any misbehavior will be discussed in individual discussions with the leader and appropriate action will be taken if needed. This is solely on the discretion of the leaders.

Role of Parents/Parents Behavior

Parents at all times are expected to show respect towards any leader or member of Cub Scouts Management.

This is a proper channel of voicing concerns about a Cub Scouts pack.

Den Leader -> Asst. Cubmaster -> Cubmaster -> Pack Committee -> Board Link -> BSO

If any issues occur, please contact above individuals via EMAIL. Parents are to provide an example to all Cub Scouts and refrain from discussing “gossip” or complaints.

Parental Involvement

We encourage and welcome all parent volunteers. Our pack and individual den can only survive with the helping hands of our parents. If you’re new to Cub Scouts, it’s great to start off by helping out with your Den! As you learn the ropes, you can help out in other areas as well.

Note: Each parent is expected to dedicate at least 3 hours of voluntary service toward any pack event.
