DEN CHIEF PLEDGE

I promise to help the boys in my den to the best of my ability;

to encourage, guide, and protect them in all den and pack

activities, and to show them by my example what

Boy Scouts of America stands for.

I will strive to be prompt and dependable, and to cooperate

with the leaders in carrying out the den program.

As each boy becomes eligible to move along the Cub Scouting

trail, I will encourage him and do all in my power to

interest him in someday becoming a Boy Scout.
