It is a year-round family program designed for boys who are in the first grade through fifth grade (or 7, 8, 9, and 10 years of age). Parents, leaders, and organizations work together to achieve the purposes of Cub Scouting. Currently, Cub Scouting is the largest of the BSA\u2019s three membership divisions.

The den structure allows boys to build relationships with leaders and other boys and provides opportunities for activities that would be difficult with a large group.
