Citizenship

We often think of Cub Scouting as a ladder of good citizenship. Let's take a look at what it means to be a good citizen.
Friendship-We make lots of friends in our school, den and pack, church, and neighborhood.
Teamwork-We learn how important it is to work with others as members of a team.
Leadership-We help with den and pack activities.
Honesty-We learn to tell the truth and to understand what honesty means.
Goodwill-We like to help our school, church, neighbors, and those less fortunate than we are. Goodwill projects make us feel good.
Responsibility-We learn to be responsible for certain jobs, our own belongings, things about our home, and for the property of others.
Loyalty-We learn to be true to our parents, our friends, and our den and pack. We also learn to honor our country and its flag.
Let's remember what it means to have good citizenship.
