Our Story

Six Decades of
Scouting Excellence

Pack 478 was founded in 1959 with a simple belief: every young person deserves the chance to discover their potential through outdoor adventure and brotherhood. For over 65 years, we've been that guiding hand for families in the Salisbury area.

Meeting weekly at the Moose Lodge on Snow Hill Road, our pack combines the structured learning of the Cub Scout program with the kind of unstructured fun that kids remember forever. From campouts under the stars to pinewood derby races, every meeting is an opportunity to grow.

Volunteer-Led & Parent-Involved

Every den is staffed by dedicated volunteer leaders who make scouting a family affair.

Award-Winning Curriculum

Our programs follow the national BSA curriculum, tailored to each age group from Tigers to Webelos.

Safe & Inclusive Environment

Youth protection trained adults, background-checked volunteers, and a culture of respect for every scout.

What Families Say

Voices From
Our Pack

My son has been with Pack 478 for three years now, and the growth I've seen in him is incredible. He comes home talking about the outdoors, his friends, and the badges he's earning. The leaders genuinely care.

S.M.
Parent of Tiger Scout
Salisbury, MD

We moved to the area and joining Pack 478 was the best decision. Our daughter made friends in the first meeting, and we've connected with other families too. It feels like a second family.

R.T.
Parent of Wolf Scout

As a volunteer leader, I can say this pack is special. The parents are involved, the kids are respectful, and the adventures never stop. I'm proud to be part of Pack 478.
