The Christ-led influencers of this generation will work together to raise the Christ-led influencers of the next generation.
We are a community of families, volunteers, and staff members whose relationship with Jesus leads kids to experience who God is and how we love Him.

Following Jesus is a class designed for kids and their parents to learn and grow together in their faith. It’s a great next step for students who are considering making a decision to follow Jesus or who want to know more about what it means to follow him before being baptized. Families will explore the basics of the Christian faith—who Jesus is, why he matters, and how to live in a relationship with Him each day. Through engaging lessons, stories, and discussions, parents and children will learn side-by-side how to read the Bible, pray, and live out God’s love in their daily lives.
Join us September 13 and 20 from 11:00-12:00pm in room 040! This class is for any elementary, middle or high school student. Register below.
If you have any questions about the class, please email us at kids@socc.org.

The Scout Oath
"On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law, to help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong mentally awake, and morally straight."
Cub Scout Pack 164 is part of the Wapehani District, under the Hoosier Trails Council and includes four dens:
You may join Cub Scouts at any point...if you're in fourth grade, you're welcome to join Webelos...no need to go back and do the other badges.
Your annual fee is just $75 and includes admission to all Pack activities, such as skiing, tubing, Indian's baseball game, Holiday World trip, rock climbing, camping, and more! To cover additional costs we sell popcorn in September as our main fundraiser.
Uniforms and handbooks are available locally at the Hoosier Trails Council building east of Bloomington on the way to Nashville. Uniform requirements for new Scouts include the blue uniform shirt (most kids opt for the short sleeve size medium), a blue webbed belt, and a neckerchief, slide and book for your appropriate den (for example, a 2nd grader would need the blue shirt, belt, and a Wolf neckerchief/slide/book).The shirt and belt will hold patches and loops your child earns each year, the following years you will only need to buy the neckerchief/slide/book for your child's new den. Many kids opt to purchase hats as well, but it's not necessary. Few kids in our Pack purchase the pants/shorts/long shirts.
