About the pack
A Cary pack, run by Cary parents.
Pack 232 is chartered by Cary Presbyterian Church and led entirely by volunteers — parents of the Scouts in it. There is no staff and no professional organizer. That is how every pack works, and it is why yours matters.
Who we are
Long-running, and deliberately small-town
Pack 232 has been part of Cary Presbyterian Church for decades, alongside Troop 232 — the first Scout troop in Cary, founded in 1967. Scouts who start with us in kindergarten can stay in the same building through Arrow of Light and straight on into a troop, which is not something most families get.
We are open to boys and girls in kindergarten through 5th grade. Cub Scouts has welcomed girls since 2018, and in 2025 the national organization changed its name from the Boy Scouts of America to Scouting America to say plainly what had already been true for years.
Everything the pack does is run by parent volunteers: the den leaders, the Cubmaster, the person who books the campsite, the person who runs the Pinewood Derby track. If you join, you will eventually be asked to help with something. It is genuinely more fun that way.
What Cub Scouts is
Friendships, skills, and time outdoors
Cub Scouts is the kindergarten-through-fifth-grade program of Scouting America — a group of local families getting their kids outside, teaching them things to be good at, and building friendships that carry into the rest of the week.
Outdoors, on purpose
Campouts, hikes, fishing, and cooking over a fire. For a lot of our Scouts this is the first time they have slept in a tent — and the reason they keep coming back.
most families had never camped before joining
Skills that stick
Knots, first aid, fire safety, using a map, cooking a meal, standing up in front of a room. Small competences that add up to a kid who believes they can handle things.
Friends who show up
A Scout sees the same six or seven kids every Monday for years — building pinewood cars, pitching tents, waiting in line for the rain gutter regatta. That is where the friendships come from.
Doing a Good Turn
Food drives, park cleanups, helping the church that charters us. Doing a Good Turn is just part of how Scouting works, not a special assignment layered on top.
Who runs it
Pack leadership
All volunteers, all parents of Scouts in the pack, all trained and background-checked under Scouting America's youth protection requirements.

Den leaders & committee
Each den has its own leader, and a parent committee handles everything from advancement to the Pinewood Derby track.

After Cub Scouts
Where our Scouts go next
Arrow of Light Scouts cross over into a Scouting America troop in the spring, usually at the Blue & Gold Banquet. Both troops meet in the same building we do.
same building, same night of the week — it is a short walk
Come see a meeting.
We meet mondays from 7:00 – 8:00 PM at Cary Presbyterian Church. Meetings are open — turn up, look around, decide later.
