Are you curious about scouting, or perhaps you've already joined our Pack and are looking for more information? Either way, you've come to the right place, and we're thrilled to make your acquaintance! Below are some frequently asked questions that may have the answer you're looking for. If not, take a look at the welcome packet to the left. If it is still unanswered or you have a specific question pertaining to your situation, you can always contact us directly too.
We meet at and are chartered by Grand Peak Academy. They are located at 7036 Cowpoke Rd. in Colorado Springs. We meet every Tuesday that school is in session either for a Den Meeting or a Pack Celebration. The time that we meet is generally scoped to 6:30 - 7:30, but can vary.
It is extremely simple to join scouting, you can apply now. However, if you prefer, we would love to see you in person first! This would allow us to go over the budget, dues, and answer any questions or concerns you may have first.
Our pack requires a Class A Scout Uniform for most Den and Pack Meetings. The Class A uniform consists of the blue cub scout shirt (tan shirt for the Arrow of Light Den), neckerchief, patches, neckerchief slide, hat, and the Scout Book appropriate for the grade of the scout.
There are some activities that occur throughout the year, which we don't wear the Class A uniform. For these events, it's nice for the scout to still be dressed similarly to the others. We do this by having a Class B uniform (pack t-shirt) for purchase at the pack. These shirts are not mandatory, but are a good way for the kids to feel a part of the group!
All required items can be obtained from the Scouting Store. There is an online scout store if you'd prefer to shop online and have it shipped to you, or you can go to the scout store here in Colorado Springs. Information about the store can be found here.
Additionally, our Pack has a small contingent of some of the Class A shirts that have been gently used, cleaned and donated. The pack t-shirt (Class B uniform) can be purchased from the pack as well.
Didn't find what your looking for, or do you have a question for your particular situation? You can always come by the school during our normal meeting times and we'd be happy to answer your question or concerns. Alternatively, if you'd like you can also use the contact form here, and we'll get back to you in a timely fashion. Alternately, you can also try to see if your question or concern can be answered in the Welcome New CS Family flier.Â
Yours in Scouting, Pack 255.
