Cub Scout Pack 818 is committed to providing the youth from Blessed Pope John XXIII and the surrounding area with the finest program to encourage strong values, hard work, and leadership: and having some fun in the process!

Boys and their families interested in Cub Scouting should visit the About Pack 818 page for detailed information. Information about our dens and their meeting days appears on this page as well. Boys do not have to go to any particular school or live in any particular area to join Cub Scouts with Pack 818. The choice of a Cub Scout Pack is usually a matter of where friends are joining and/or the convenience of the meeting location.

Any interested boy who is in the first through fifth grade can join Cub Scouting with Cub Scout Pack 818 anytime. Pack 818 now has over 50 boys officially registered in grades one through five, in six different dens.

A den is a group of boys in a particular grade, led by one or more adult den leader volunteers. The leaders and parents of the den decide when and where the den meets. If there is space in a den, or if a new den forms with a den leader, then Pack 818 will accept any eligible boy for membership. First-grade Tiger Cub dens are the beginning level of Cub Scouting, which means that they have to be formed brand new either at the end of the kindergarten school year or at the beginning of the first grade school year.

Our Location and Contact Information: Cub Scout Pack 818 of Scottsdale, Arizona is chartered by St. Bernadette Roman Catholic Church. Directions to St. Bernadette can be found here: Directions.

JOINING BOY SCOUTS (OLDER BOYS): Boy Scouting (as opposed to Cub Scouting) is for older boys, those who are at least 11 years old, or who have completed the 5th grade, or who have earned the Arrow of Light in Cub Scouting and are at least 10 years old.
