Cub Scout Bullseye Bonanza

Get ready for an exciting day on the range! Join us for a fun-filled adventure where Cub Scouts will learn safety and master proper techniques for air-powered BB guns, archery, and slingshots. This is the perfect chance for Tigers through Webelos to focus on earning their Rank Specific Shooting Sports awards—an exclusive achievement you can only get at a Council event! Even Lions can join in the fun with archery and slingshots. We offer two separate sessions each day, covering all three activities, so Scouts can attend both sessions or choose between morning and afternoon. Grab your adult partner and aim for fun!

On the way, they will get rank advancement requirements, special awards, and pride from conquering new challenges.
