FROM PRIOR ANNOUNCEMENTS: The Boy Scouts of America have announced a recall of a plastic badge that many of our Scouts likely have. It includes the words "Progress Toward Ranks" and is shown in the picture above. The yellow paint on the badge may contain lead levels in excess of US Consumer Product Safety Commission standards.

Welcome to Pack 555 of Burlington, Massachusetts!
Welcome to the 2009/2010 School Year. Pack 555 serves the boys in Grades 1-5 at Francis Wyman and Memorial Elementary Schools. Do a Good Turn!

What is Pack 555 Scouting All About?

The ten purposes of Cub Scouting are:

Character Development
Spiritual Growth
Good Citizenship
Sportsmanship and Fitness
Family Understanding
Respectful Relationships

Friendly Service

At Pack 555, we teach this through structured Den and Pack Meetings filled with educational and fun activities, field trips and hikes, outdoor events and camping, and community service projects like cleaning up our schools and food collections for the needy.
