Questions parents ask

Does my child need to attend Davis or Richmond?

No. Pack 260 welcomes families from schools throughout St. Charles as well as homeschool communities.

Do we need a uniform before visiting?

No. Come as you are. Leaders will explain uniform options after you decide to join.

What if we have sports or other activities?

No meeting is mandatory. Families participate at their own pace, and the regular schedule makes planning easier.

How does Pack 260 keep children safe?

Registered leaders complete screening and required Youth Protection training. Pack activities follow Scouting America’s current safety policies.
