CUBMASTER: When you became a part of this Pack, as a Tiger Cub, we told how Akela had created the Cub Scouts and then the Tiger Cubs. We used the flame of Cub Scouting to light the Orange flame of the Tiger Cubs. That flame is before you, now.

You repeated the Tiger Cub Promise, and for the past months you have been following that promise and living the Tiger Cub motto SEARCH - DISCOVER - SHARE. Now, you are ready to move on to the Cub Scout Pack.

Do you remember how Akela selected the Blue of the Sky and the Gold of the sun to be the colors of the Cub Scout and how he gave the new Cub Scouts a motto to follow. As a Cub Scout it will be your motto... "Do Your Best". I know that you will try to follow it as you work to complete the requirements for the various badges you will work on as a Cub.

Cub Scouting is still a partnership, you and your family will work together to make the Pack successful.

Your parents will work with you on your Wolf book and attend your Pack meetings. Your Tiger Cub partner is standing behind you to indicate their support as you go forward in Scouting.

Let's all raise our arms in the Cub Scout Sign and repeat the 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.

Now, will each of you join me in lighting the Blue and Gold Candles of Cub Scouting, using the flame of the Tiger Cub. (Light candles) Now let's all join together in blowing out the Orange Tiger Candle as we move on to Cub Scouting.

Welcome to Cub Scouting and Pack _____.
