A Welcome from the Cubmaster

Welcome home to Pack 25.

At Pack 25 Tampa, we help our Cub Scouts live the Scout Oath and Scout Law by building upon the kindness, respect, helpfulness, teamwork, and responsibility they already bring to our Pack. We meet regularly throughout the Cub Scout year for Pack and Den meetings, we camp often, we learn from our Pack and Den leaders and the Cub Scout programming and adventures, we serve our Tampa community, and we have fun together! Most importantly, we work to help each of our Cub Scouts grow while strengthening our families, our Pack, and our community.

Special Note About Protecting Our Youth:Parents deserve certainty about who is leading their children and how the Pack is governed. Pack 25 takes youth safety seriously, requires every Pack and den leader to be fully trained for the position in which the leader serves and fully vetted, and maintains clear parent-led oversight and accountability.-Rob Walton, Cubmaster

Youth Safety & Accountability

Your child’s safety comes first.

At Pack 25 Tampa, youth safety is built into how we select and train leaders, supervise activities, and govern the Pack.

Trained and vetted adult leadership

Pack 25 strictly adheres to Scouting America’s youth-protection and safety requirements. EVERY Pack and den leader must be fully trained for the position in which the leader serves and fully vetted through Scouting America’s registration, screening, and background-check requirements before serving.

Pack 25 follows Scouting America’s barriers-to-abuse requirements, including two registered adult leaders at Scouting activities and the prohibition against one-on-one contact between an adult leader and a youth member.

Parent-led oversight and accountability

Pack 25 is run by a Parent Committee comprised of Pack and den leaders. The Parent Committee provides ongoing planning, oversight, and accountability for Pack programming, activities, finances, and compliance.

A three-person Executive Leadership Committee provides focused leadership and accountability. It consists of Cubmaster Rob Walton, Parent Committee Chair Robert Cleveland, and Chartered Organization Representative Dave Hoppe.

Our chartered organization, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church And School, provides an additional layer of oversight through its Chartered Organization Representative, Dave Hoppe.
