Family Troop & Cub Scouts

Troop 38 & Pack 3038 are multi-denominational and meet at Wasatch Presbyterian Church. We have a long history of inclusiveness to all youth and adults regardless of means, race, religion, or orientation. In Utah’s outdoor classroom we teach and learn citizenship, character development, and personal fitness. We strive to create life-changing experiences while utilizing the following method:

• We camp 10 out of 12 months of the year.

• Activities are Scout-led with adult guidance.

• We engage in respectful dialogue when opinions differ.

• We work as a team.

• We take on challenges.

• Scouts can make mistakes in a safe environment and learn from them.
