As part of the Hawk Mountain Council Annual Program Launch, we have compiled a list of resources that can assist your unit as you plan your upcoming Scouting year. Most of these resources are located on the Scouting.org website to provide the latest information.

Please visit the tabs below that will help you have a successful and safe Scouting year.

Cub Scout Summer Passport

The Cub Scout Summer Passport is a way to keep Cub Scouts and their families engaged throughout the summer. Within the passport, Cub Scouts and their families be given opportunities to explore four different themes. Each theme is meant to give Cub Scouts a better understanding of themselves and their local surroundings. We have worked hard to develop a program that is as engaging as it is fun!

Cub Scouts are encouraged to complete as many activities as they can to receive a FREE patch after the summer. Although we encourage Cub Scouts to do as many of the activities as they can, like the Cub Scout motto says: “Do Your Best!”

The program runs from June 1st to August 31st. If you would like physical copies, they are available at the Council office. If you would like a large quantity (30+), please contact Cole Mitchell at the Council office to make sure we have enough copies available.
