The Den Chief Pledge

I promise to help the Cub Scouts (or Webelos Scouts) in

my den to the best of my ability; to encourage, guide,

and protect them in all den and pack activities; and to

show them by my example what a Boy Scout is.

I will strive to be prompt and dependable, and to

cooperate with the leaders in carrying out the den program.

As each Cub Scout completes third grade, I will

encourage him to join a Webelos join.

As he becomes eligible, I will do all in my power to

interest him in becoming a Boy Scout.
