For the last 80 years, the Polk 1 Fire Station has chartered the Cub Scout Pack shared by Monmouth and Independence, Oregon. We provide a year-round program for boys in 1st-5th grades that brings opportunities to learn citizenship, teamwork, and self-confidence through a variety of community and outdoor activities. The structure for these activities is found in the Cub Scout Promise, Motto, the Law of the Pack, and the 12 Character Connections.
