Who We Are
Pack 76 is based in Lafayette, Colorado. We are part of the Indian Peaks District and the Longs Peak Council of the Boy Scouts of America.

Where We Meet
Pack meetings are typically held at Jax Outdoor Gear. See the pack calendar for the dates of upcoming meetings.

Den meetings are typically held in the home of one of the den members.

Our Charter Organization
Pack 76 is chartered by Jax Outdoor Gear.


Membership
Membership dues for Pack 76 are $70 per year with $10 going directly into the scouts "cubby account". Your dues pay for registration with the Boy Scouts of America, scout handbook and meeting space rental.  An annual subscription to Boys Life Magazine is included in the membership fee. For particular activities, Dens Leaders may ask for an activity fee to cover the costs associated with a particular activity. This may include craft supply fees, admission fees, or the like. These will be kept to a minimum and will be announced ahead of time. Some Pack events may also require a nominal activity fee. Family events are usually the responsibility of those who choose to participate.

A “Cubby Account” will be held for each scout to use for individual scouting expenses.  This money can be used to purchase or pay for anything associated with scouting.  The "Cubby Accounts" are mostly replenished by our fund raiser of selling popcorn in the fall.

Should fees or any costs become a problem for your family, please contact one of your pack leaders. Scholarships are available and all requests will remain confidential.

Uniforms
Pack 76 requires a Class A uniform for all Cub Scouts. Tiger Cubs, Wolves, and Bears wear a uniform that consists of an official blue uniform shirt, belt, neckerchief with slide, and all required patches. First and second year Webelos wear a tan shirt.

Volunteers
Parent volunteers are always needed. Registration and training are provided by the Pack for those who are interested in helping. If you'd like to help in any capacity, please contact the Pack Committee Chairman, Cubmaster, Assistant Cubmaster, or your son's Den Leader.

Responsibilities and Expectations
Scouts are expected to attend all Den and Pack meetings. Scouts should arrive on time, not late and not early. If the parent or guardian does not stay for the meeting, they should return promptly at the scheduled ending time of the meeting to assist with cleaning up and pick up the Scout. Tiger Cubs are expected to have a parent present at all meetings.

If a Scout misses a meeting, it is their responsibility to find out what was missed, especially any information that may have been distributed. Good behavior is expected at all Scout functions and activities. This includes showing respect of Leaders, adults and other Scouts, quietly listening to instructions, information and others that are speaking. Parents are expected to encourage, support and assist their Scout as they work on achievements. All parents are to share in the efforts of their Den and the Pack. The Den Leader and Assistant are coordinators. The parents are responsible to deal with any behavior problem identified by the Den Leaders.

The Scouts and parents should expect the Den Leader and Assistant Den Leader to be prepared to work with you, and keep you informed about what is happening within the Den and Pack. All Cub Scout leaders are expected to follow all scouting rules, regulations and guidelines without exception. The Boy Scouts of America has policies to protect the Scouts, the Leaders and the program. They may not always be convenient, but they have a purpose and are not to be excused for any reason. Everyone Who participates in a Scout activity must comply with these policies.

If you are not satisfied with the program or performance of your Den, don’t sit back, but instead contact the Den Leader, Cubmaster or Pack Committee Chairman immediately. We all are responsible for timely communication of any such concern.

Youth Protection
We take the protection of our Scouts seriously. The Boy Scouts of America places the greatest importance on creating a secure environment for our youth members. To maintain such an environment, the BSA developed numerous procedural and leadership selection policies and provides parents and leaders online, video, and print resources for the Cub Scout program. All adults are required to take a free training course (youth protection) and parents are strongly encouraged to do the same. The course can be completed online in about 20 minutes and will help you understand these policies.
