In Cub Scouts your child has been primarily with boys his own age as part of a den, lead by two Den Leaders directing their advancement
through the program. In BSA Scouting your child will become part of a patrol with scouts ranging from 10 through 17 years of age. The
older scouts and Troop Leaders will provide the mentoring and leadership to guide your child through the scouting program. He is now part
of a Troop and not just a Cub Den.
