Kindergarten through 5th grade

Build a car.
Sleep in a tent.
Make a friend.

That's a year in Pack 83. We meet the first Tuesday of every month in Denver, and your first visit costs nothing.

Pack 83 scouts and a leader in uniform at Beatty’s Ford Park, May 2026

A year on the trail

Every den does these together, and parents come along. You are never dropping your son off with strangers.

Camping

Family campouts twice a year. Tents, a campfire, and a great deal of s'mores.

Pinewood Derby

Every scout carves and races a car. It lands in the winter and it is the loudest night of the year.

Service

Food drives and park clean-ups. Scouts get to know their town by taking care of it.

Rank badges

Lion through Arrow of Light. Each year has its own adventures and its own badge to earn.

Find your son's den

Grade decides the den. Lions meet on the second Tuesday; every other den meets on the second and third Tuesday, all at 7pm.

From the Cubmaster

This isn’t just a place for your child. It’s a place for family.

Come to a meeting, sit in the back, and see whether or not you all want to come back. That’s all it takes.
