Cub Resident Camp Program
The Kirby Grace:
Through sun and shade, rain or hail,
Our Cub Scout spirit never fails.
We thank thee, Lord, for food and friends,
And Kirby fun that never ends!

Cub Scout Vespers:
As the night comes to this land, On my promise I will stand.
I will help the Pack to go, As the Pack helps me to grow.
Yes, I’ll always give good will, I’ll follow my Akela still.
And before I stop to rest, I will do my very best.
