The Cub Scout
follows Akela
Akela means "good
leader." To a Cub Scout, Akela may be a
parent, a teacher, a religious leader, a Cub Scout leader, or another
guide. A Cub Scout should choose a good leader to follow.
The Cub Scout helps the pack go
Your pack needs you to be a good member.
A good member goes to all meetings, follows the leaders, and pitches in
to make the pack better. Being a good member of the pack means doing your
share, and sometimes a little more, to help the pack.
The pack helps the Cub Scout grow
With the leaders and Cub Scouts all
working together, the pack helps you grow into a better person. You will
learn new things and new skills. You'll learn the right way to do the right
things. And along the way, you will help others.
The Cub Scout gives goodwill
Doing good things for others doesn't
just make them happy. It also gives them the desire (or the
"will") to do good things for others in turn. In this way, the
good things you do for others make ripples that pass the goodwill from
person to person. The spirit of helpfulness and good cheer spreads from
you to others in your neighborhood.
