What is BSA recharter?
In addition to renewing the unit charter, recharter time is when all youth and adult members (leaders) renew their membership in BSA. Member renewals are most of the work. If your unit collects all or part of its member dues or fees on an annual basis, that collection often takes place at recharter, too.

What is the difference between a den meeting and a pack meeting?
A den is made up of girls or boys of the same rank. There are two kinds of dens: all-boy or all-girl. A pack can be all-boy, all-girl or include a mix of all-boy and all-girl dens. Dens usually meet weekly or biweekly; packs meet monthly.
Why do Cubmasters and den leaders serve on the pack committee?
Every pack has a pack committee, which consists of at least three members (chair, secretary, and treasurer). By handling administrative and support tasks, the pack committee allows the Cubmaster, den leaders, and their assistants to focus on working directly with the Cub Scouts.
Why is Cub Scout popcorn so expensive?
