About Pack 88
We are chartered to Christ Lutheran Church in Oreland, Pennsylvania and offer the Cub Scouting program to kids from K through 5th grades in the greater Upper Dublin and Springfield townships.
How it Works
Pack 88 is an active pack where Cub Scouts are given the opportunity to participate in activities and community service events that keep them interested and challenged.
The kids in each age group meet together as a den at least twice a month for 1 hour long den meetings at Christ Lutheran Church’s class rooms. These meetings are led by a volunteer parent den leader to teach scouts new skills through fun activities and educate them on how to be a good citizen. Activities cover a broad variety of topics, such as citizenship, safety, wilderness survival/outdoors, STEM fields, physical fitness, personal health, common hobbies, and arts/crafts.
The dens also assemble monthly for a Pack activity, such as day hikes, overnight camping events, volunteer activities, and unique events such as overnight museum sleepovers or nature center visits. Cubs are awarded various achievement belt loops, pins, and rank patches during the Pack holiday party and the end-of-year Blue and Gold dinner.

On the advancement trail, a Cub Scout progresses towards a badge of rank based on their grade. They need not have earned the previous rank in order to earn the next. Each of the ranks in Cub Scouting has its own requirements that are age appropriate, so earning a rank below a Cub Scout’s current grade is not permitted. As a Cub Scout advances through the ranks, the requirements get more challenging, to match the new skills and abilities they have learned.
