Pack Faqs
Field Uniform
This is the classic uniform most people associate with cub scouts. You can order your uniform in one of two ways, online or in person. If ordering online, you can use the chat feature to have someone help you select all you need to purchase. You do not need pants or socks. Blue jeans without holes work for the uniform.

Behavior / No Bullying policy
Behavior of scouts
Any sexual comments, art or actions are not tolerated. You and your scout will be asked to leave the meeting. There is no bullying in scouts. We, both parents and scouts, use kind language with each other. Scouts need to keep their hands to themselves, no hitting and pushing will be tolerated.
Inclusive Pack
Pack 310 has always been inclusive. We included sisters in activities long before it was okayed by the counsel. We believe that Scouts is for all children no matter their sexual identity. We have been a safe place for people with disabilities, girls and LGBTQIA as long as any of us have been in the pack. This has not and will not change. All children, not just boys, deserve to experience scouts. Please refrain from expressing opposing opinions at scouting events as we do not wish to make our pack unwelcoming.
Den Chiefs
These Scouts are volunteering their time and deserve respect for that. Please treat them respectfully and encourage your scouts to do the same.
Medical Forms
Medical forms are required for all outings with scouts. Most importantly they are important for Summer Camp. Both scout and parent must fill out Parts A-B to attend summer camp. Medical forms expire a year after the date noted on the forms. If you or your scout have a special need, dietary, medical, etc please fill out the special needs form. You will find Medical Forms in this packet.

Policy for missing meetings
If you need to miss a meeting or a few meetings, you can make up the work done at that meeting as long as you provide proof to your den leader that satisfies them, this could be videos, pictures or a presentation.
Training
If you are volunteering for a position, there is most likely some kind of training attached to that position. Please go to my.scouting.org and select the training that fits your position and complete it.
We also ask parents to do Youth Protection Training (YPT) before attending Summer Camp every year. This is not a requirement of the council, this is a requirement of the pack. It is about an hour long but it is great information to have.
