Overview |

We are a member of the National Capital Area Council, which serves the Washington, D.C. Metro area, including 16 counties in Maryland and Virginia, the U.S. Virgin Islands and those families whoa re serving abroad in North and South America. Our primary goal is to provide a safe and enjoyable learning environment for scouts to develop skills outside of what is experienced in the classroom. Our pack has been around for about 75 years and servers the greater Springfield/Kingstown area. Our pack consists of cub-scouts ranging from Kindergarten through Fifth grade. Each den has a den leader who actively works with the scouts to complete both required and elective adventures. Each den has a mix of both boys and girls. Some high-level details of both den and pack level activities include:

  • Den Activities:
    • Fishing
    • Hiking
    • Adventures geared towards appropriate age groups
    • Learning skills outside of the classroom environment
  • Annual Pack Activities:
    • Fall Camp Out
    • Scouting for Food
    • Wreaths Across America
    • Annual Pinewood Derby
    • Blue and Gold Celebration
    • Spring Camp Out

Den and pack meetings take place at St. John’s Church on Franconia Road (5952 Franconia Rd, Alexandria, VA 22310). Den meetings are hosted by a designated den leader, and the schedule is set by them. Most of the den meetings take place at least once or twice per month. Our pack level meetings usually take place on the fourth Tuesday of each month in the evenings from 7pm-8pm. Prior to registration we welcome prospective scouts and their families to attend either the pack meeting or den meeting to experience first hand the scouting experience. If you are interested in joining please visit our registration page here, or feel free to reach out to us via our contact form.
