Pack 137 is chartered by Hancock United Church of Christ and serves boys in first through fifth grades, mostly from the Estabrook and Hastings school districts in Lexington, Massachusetts.

The Cub Scout program teaches boys about Community, Family, Outdoors, and Self through a set of fun, organized activities.

Small dens are formed of three to eight boys in the same grade level. Parents lead the den meetings using program ideas from Cub Scout books. Some dens have cooperative leadership (each parent takes a turn), while others have a single den leader and an assistant. The pack is the sum of all the dens.

Dens meet about twice a month throughout the school year. Each den picks its own meeting time and location.

Pack meetings are generally held on the second Thursday of each month during the school year from 6:45 - 7:45 p.m. at: Hancock Church, Clarke Hall, 1912 Massachusetts Avenue, (across from Lexington Battle Green)

Cub Scouting is for Families
Cub Scouting is a family activity. Families are involved in a number of ways. Many of the requirements for completing the Bobcat, Tiger, Wolf, Bear, and Webelos badges require family involvement. The pack is also organized and run solely by parent volunteers. Our goal is to have the parent(s) of every family help out with at least one and usually two pack events each year, in addition to supporting and/or running a den.
