Tiger Cub Motto
Tiger Cub Promise
In the early 1980s, as part of the Foundations for Growth study, a survey was developed to find out if and how Scouting could meet the abilities, needs, and desires of 7-year-old boys and their families. The boys wanted to have fun, with other boys and with their parents. The parents wanted a program in which they could work directly with their sons, exposing them to a variety of experiences. The parents also wanted simplicity and a meeting pattern-once or twice a month-that would fit into a busy schedule. A group of Cub Scouters and educators gathered the survey results and data from pilot programs to design a program that matches the desires found in the survey with the developmental needs of boys in this age group. Tiger Cubs BSA was field tested and approved, and officially became a part of the Boy Scouts of America. The Tiger Cub program is designed to introduce the boys and their adult partners to Cub Scouting. The Tiger Cub uniform consists of a special orange T-shirt and the Tiger Cub hat.
