Welcome to Cub Scout Pack 2

July 4th paradeWe are Cub Scout Pack 2, chartered by Scouts BSA to Northwest Hills United Methodist Church, serving families in Austin's Northwest Hills neighborhood and Doss Elementary.

Does your child like to camp? Have they ever slept on an aircraft carrier? How about swim in the Frio River? Or maybe cook s’mores over a camp fire while telling jokes and performing skits?

Cub Scouting exposes elementary age kids to these outdoor activities and more, while simultaneously teaching lessons about leadership, self-sufficiency, and healthy habits.

Cub Scout Pack 2 is a very active group of about 60 1st - 5th graders. Most attend Doss Elementary or live in the Northwest Hills neighborhood of Austin, TX - but all are welcome!

We're based out of Northwest Hills United Methodist Church (all faiths welcome at our charter organization) in Austin, TX. We belong to the Armadillo District of the Capital Area Council within the Boy Scouts of America organization.

It's always a great time to join Cub Scouts.  Check out this website or contact our Cubmaster to learn more about Cub Scouts.
