Located in West Wichita, Kansas at the corner of west 21st Street and Woodchuck.

DEN MEETINGS

Den Meetings are held weekly, on Monday nights at Aldersgate UMC except the week of the Pack Meeting. We meet at 7:00pm and meetings are an hour long. Most of our Dens take an occasional field trip to work on advancements. While most advancements are worked on during Den Meetings, Parents also need to work with their Cubs on some advancements at home. We welcome and encourage Parents to stay. This way, you get to know each other and our Leaders. Cubs should be escorted to their Den homes and picked up from their Den homes on time.

PACK MEETINGS

Pack Meetings are typically held on the last Monday of the month at 7:00pm at Aldersgate UMC in the Sanctuary. Parents should be in attendance along with their Cub at all pack functions, especially Pack Meetings, since this is when the Cubs receive their advancements and important announcements are made.

PACK LEADERS & PARENTS MEETINGS

Pack Leaders and Parents Meetings are held on the third Sunday of the month. These meetings are held at Aldersgate UMC to establish programs and policies. Parents are encouraged to get involved with our Pack and Pack Committee is a great way to start.

REGISTRATION FEES

Registration fees are $16.00, and include a subscription to Boys Life magazine. Cubs who sell at least $100 in popcorn will not have to pay this fee when recharter is due in March.

DEN DUES

Dues are $1.00 for Webelos and 75¢ for Wolf and Bear Cubs and are collected weekly at Den Meetings. No Dues are collected the week of Pack Meetings. Dues are used by the Dens to provide program material for Den meetings.

FUND RAISERS

We encourage the Cubs to sell Trail’s End Popcorn. In our Pack, if a Cub sells $50.00 in popcorn, the Pack will pay for their registration fee, which comes due in March. If a Cub Sells $150.00 in popcorn, the Pack will pay for their registration fee, and their Boy’s Life Subscription. A portion of the Cub’s Popcorn sales is held for them by the Pack Treasurer, and may be used towards Camp fees. We feel this helps out both the Pack and the Parents. There are additional prizes from the District and the pack, which the Cubs earn by selling Popcorn. The monies the Pack receives from Popcorn sales, goes toward the normal operating expenses of our Pack.

We encourage Cubs to wear Class A uniforms to all Pack Meetings, Class B to Den meetings, Class C when appropriate. There will be occasions when Class A uniforms will be requested for special occasions.
