Volunteer with Pack 274
Pack 274 is powered by parents. Every meeting, outing, service project, and campout happens because a family said yes to one piece of it.
Help comes in every size
Pack 274 is run entirely by volunteer parents — there is no paid staff behind the scenes. Some roles are ongoing, like leading a den. Many more are bounded: one activity, one meal, one setup shift, or one pack meeting. You do not have to take on a year-long role to make a difference, and you do not need to commit to a leadership position to contribute.
The opportunities below are current examples, not an exhaustive list. If you have a skill or an idea that is not here, we would love to hear it.
Our biggest ongoing need
Lead a den
Den Leader (by grade/rank)
Dens are organized by rank, and the den leader guides that den's meetings and Adventures through the year. Ongoing, not a one-event job — and you are not alone in it.
Not ready for a big role?
These are one-activity, one-event jobs. Each one makes the pack stronger.
