About Cub Scout Pack 57
Founded in 1971, Cub Scout Pack 57 was created to bring scouting to the scouts in the Nesconset / Smithtown / Ronkonkoma area for boys and girls in grades K to 5th. The primary goal of Cub Scouting is to provide young children with a fun and educational program that instills values, builds character, and promotes physical fitness and outdoor activities. We are a Family Pack which includes boy and girl dens.
​
​
Scouting follows the school year. Children can join Pack 57 any time from kindergarten through fifth grade. You can meet the pack at any of the upcoming events. Contact us directly for more information.
​
Pack 57 has strived to maintain its leadership by continually recruiting new Scouts. We are always looking for new scouts to join our Pack during the year to experience scouting.
