ARRANGEMENT:

Cubmaster: Will everyone please stand?
(Call new boys and their parents forward.)
Will the pack recite the Cub Scout Promise:
Cub Scout Promise
I ________, promise to do my best,
To do my duty,
To God and my country,
To help other people, and
To obey the Law of the Pack
Join me in reciting the Law of the Pack:
Law of the Pack
The Cub Scout follows Akela.
The Cub Scout helps the Pack go.
The Pack helps the Cub Scout grow.
The Cub Scout gives goodwill.
Will the audience please be seated?
The logs in the center represent the fellowship of the boys and families in Cub Scouting. Your piece of wood represents you.
Please step forward and add your wood to the fire.
As your wood makes the fire burn stronger and brighter, so you make the pack stronger and better.
As your piece of wood becomes an integral part of the fire, so you are now an integral part of the pack.
Without you, the pack would gradually grow dimmer and die. You are the fuel that keeps the pack going.
You are now formally accepted as a member of Pack 809. Please turn and face your parent.
Parents, we will now induct you as a part of the Cub Scout Family.

Please turn and make the following pledge to your son.
The Parent's Pledge:
Repeat after me:
As your parent,
I will do my best
To help you, a Cub Scout,
Live up to the Cub Scout Promise
And obey the Law of the Pack.
I will work with you
On your achievements and projects.
I will attend the pack meetings
And help as needed
To make the pack go.
Will everyone please join me in giving three cheers to the newest members of our Pack?
