White Oak District

Range and Target Activities for Packs

Sunday, October 25, 2026
11:00 am to 3:30 pm

Calling all Tigers, Wolves and Bears!

The purpose of range & target activities in Scouting is to teach firearm safety while introducing youth to a variety of fun, interactive program experiences.

Scouting’s range & target activities are developed and implemented through age-appropriate training and experiences.

Scouting America adheres to its longstanding policy of teaching its youth and adult members the safe, responsible, and intelligent handling, care, and use of firearms, archery, and hand-held throwing sports in planned, carefully managed, and supervised programs for each youth who chooses to participate.

Cub Scouts may only participate in range & target activities at a district or council event or activity. All range & target activities are prohibited at the Cub Scout pack or den level.

The Guide to Safe Scouting states that any range & target activities not detailed in our program literature or the National Range & Target Activities Manual are prohibited.
