Welcome to the home of Pack 493

of the Northwest Suburban Council Boy Scouts of America

The Cub Scouts of America colors are blue and gold. They have special meaning, which will help boys see beyond the fun of Cub Scouting to its ultimate goals. The blue stands for truth and spirituality, steadfast loyalty, and the sky above. The gold stands for warm sunlight, good cheer and happiness. As a boy begins the Boy Scout Trail, he joins other boys his own age. He can start the scouting program at any age from 6 to 17 years old. The Cub Scout program is for 1st graders through 3rd graders - Tiger cubs, Wolf scouts, and Bear scouts, and 4th - 5th graders for Webelos.
