Cub Scout Pack 193 Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

WELCOME TO Cub Scout Pack 193

Cub Scout Pack 193 is hosted by the Cabana Colony Residents League, located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Our regular pack meeting is the fourth Thursday of every month at 6:00 PM in Carpender's Hall in Maranath Church, located at 2575 Lone Pine Rd in Palm Beach Gardens. However, be sure to check the Pack 193 Activities link on this web site for our latest calendar of events.

We were organized in the late 1960's. For more than 35 years now, we have been in active service to the community. Some of the community events we are involved with include Scouting for Food, Car Washes, Distributing of the Cabana Colny News Letters, and The BIG Sweep and maintaining the Cabana Colony.

In addition to participating in these great community service projects, the Scouts also do

They have a great time building car for the very popular Pinewood Derby
Attending Day Camp and Mosquitoree Camp
Working as a team during the Pack Events
Mastering the art of knots

and so much more.

Cub Scout Vision Statement

The Boy Scouts of America, including the Cub Scouts, is the nation's foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training. In the future Scouting will continue to:

Offer young people responsible fun and adventure

Instill in young people lifetime values and develop in them ethical character as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law

Train young people in citizenship, service, and leadership

Serve America's communities and families with its quality, values-based program

Scouting's Bottom Line

What happens to a Scout? For every 100 boys who join Scouting, records indicate that:

RARELY will one be brought before the juvenile court system
2 will become Eagle Scouts
17 will become future Scout volunteers
12 will have their first contact with a church
1 will enter the clergy
5 will earn their church award
18 will develop a hobby that will last through their adult life
8 will enter a vocation that was learned through the merit badge system
1 will use his Scouting skills to save his own life
1 will use his Scouting skills to save the life of another person

Scouting's alumni record is equally impressive. A recent nation- wide survey of high schools revealed the following information:

85% of student council presidents were Scouts
89% of senior class presidents were Scouts
80% of junior class presidents were Scouts
75% of school publication editors were Scouts
71% of football captains were Scouts

Scouts also account for:

64% of Air Force Academy graduates
68% of West Point graduates
70% of Annapolis graduates
72% of Rhodes Scholars
85% of F.B.I. agents
26 of the first 29 astronauts

Note: Since this was written the percentage of Eagle Scouts has climbed to nearly 4%. The Eagle Scout Service in 1997 announced that the figure was 3.89%.
