Boys join Cub Scouting for excitement, to be with friends, and to have fun. But "having fun" includes more than just actually having a good time. It also means feeling accepted by a groupregardless of race, class, religion, culture, or any other elements. Fun also means boys discovering that they can perform challenging tasks.
When Baden-Powell founded Scouting, he drew on his military experience. He recognized that boys would want to become Scouts because they are "keen for adventure and outdoor sports...they want to have fun and learn how to live outdoors." He realized that Scouting was a game with a purpose—a game in which the purpose of Scouting manifests itself today in the ideals and values found in the Cub Scout Promise, the Law of the Pack, the Scout Oath and Law, the Scout motto, and the Scout slogan. Cub Scouting is a character-building organization that embraces the values of citizenship, compassion, cooperation, courage, faith, health and fitness, honesty, perseverance, positive attitude, resourcefulness, respect, and responsibility. It is expected that boys in Scouting will not only have fun and experience adventure but will also accept Scouting's value system. High-quality leadership is the key to youth acquiring and internal izing the ideals and values of the Boy Scouts of America.
