The Cub Scout adventure begins with Tiger Cubs.
Parents are most involved at the Tiger Cub level. The boy and his parent or guardian join the den together and attend all meetings and activities together.
The den is made up of three to eight of these parent-son teams. Each den also has a Tiger Cub den leader (usually one of the parents) who helps coordinate the meetings. The parent-son teams take turns running the activities and planning meetings with the Tiger Cub den leader. The den has one meeting a month. Participation is key for "Go See It" activities (the den, as a group, visits a community place of interest), and attends a monthly pack meeting.
At the end of the school year he graduates to a Wolf Cub Scout.
