Want to see what Cub Scouting is all about before committing to a full year?
Or looking for ways to help offset the membership fee? We’ve got you covered!
The 2025 annual membership fee is $170. For some families—especially with multiple Scouts—that can be a big commitment. Our Trial Membership lets your family experience the fun of Cub Scouts now, with options to reduce or eliminate that cost.
Step 1 – Request a Trial Membership
Once you know which Cub Scout Pack you’d like to join, fill out the form at MCC Trial Membership to request your Trial Membership.
Step 2 – Get Your Coupon Code
You’ll receive an email with a coupon code to use during the Youth Application process.
Step 3 – Apply Online
Complete the online Youth Application and enter your coupon code.
Note: The coupon does not cover the optional Scout Life subscription. If you’d like that, it’s an additional $15.
Step 4 – Jump into the Fun
Enjoy Cub Scouts through December 1, 2025!
To continue beyond that date, you’ll be asked to sell popcorn to help cover any remaining balance of the $170 membership fee. To read all the fine print, please visit MCC Trial Membership. Watch your email for details about the Trails End popcorn sale.
