Cub Scouts is for boys and girls, kindergarten to 5th grade. It is a program where youth develop the foundations for leadership, citizenship, and personal fitness through fun activities. Dens are organized by grade. Cub Scouting activities are designed for Scouting families to get in on the fun, and include exploring the outdoors, building projects, making friends, and developing a lifelong love of learning as Cub Scouts earn patches related to their grades.

Pack 229 meets at Holy Spirit School in San Jose, CA and is a part of the Silicon Valley Monterey Bay Council of Scouting America. We welcome students from Holy Spirit School or Parish and other surrounding schools.
