Being a Cub Scout is a privilege, not a right. Pack discipline is meant to ensure the safety and best interest of all our Cub Scouts. Discipline at Pack and Den events is at the discretion of the Scout leaders in accordance with the following guidelines.
- First warning: A verbal instruction
- Second warning: A time-out or removal from an activity. In the case of dangerous behavior, a Scout leader may choose to proceed directly to this warning
- Third warning: Parents will be asked to remove a Scout for the day.
- In the case of repetitive behavior, Den leaders may ask parents to participate more directly with their Scout in Den functions.
- Den leaders have the right to exclude a Cub Scout from their Den for reasons of continuing misconduct. The situation will be reviewed by the Pack Committee and the Cub Scout's parents. In extreme cases the Scout may be dismissed from the Pack.
- No Scout or adult in attendance at a Cub Scout function is permitted to use alcohol or illegal drugs. Any Scout or adult in violation of this rule will be suspended for 30 days, pending an expulsion review by the Pack Committee. Adult tobacco use is strongly discouraged at Pack functions; if tobacco must be used, it should be a minimum of 100 yards from the Scouting program and should be outside the view of the Scouts or members of the public.
- Non-Scout siblings are welcome at Pack 270 functions, but parents are responsible for the conduct of their non-Scout children at all times. Parents may be asked to remove disruptive children from these events.
