About Pack 261
Our story, mission, and leadership team
Our Mission
Pack 261 is committed to building character, citizenship, and physical fitness in young people through the Cub Scout program. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow, explore, and serve their community.
Who We Are
Pack 261 is a Cub Scout pack chartered by St. Ann Catholic School in Metairie, LA. We serve scouts in kindergarten through 5th grade, organized into dens by rank.
Our pack is part of the Boy Scouts of America's Southeast Louisiana Council, Pelican District.
We've been proudly serving our community, and are always excited to welcome new scouts and families.
What We Do
- Monthly pack meetings with activities and advancement ceremonies
- Monthly den meetings focused on rank-specific adventures
- Camping trips and outdoor adventures throughout the year
- Community service projects and service learning
- The Pinewood Derby — our most exciting annual tradition
- Blue & Gold Banquet celebrating the founding of Scouting
