Needra sent in this question:

My grandson who is 6 would like to join a tiger cub program. How do I find one in my area??

This one is easy!

Go to the BeAScout website.
Locate the box labeled “Find Cub Scouting Units in Your Area”
Enter your zip code and click on the arrow.

This will take you to a map with a lot of “pins” on it. Each pin represents a different unit in your area. Click on one of the pins for more information.
