The annual cost for scouting is $175. Your first year you will pay approximately $98 to the National BSA organization when you submit your one-time application and $75 to Pack 72 directly. After your first year, Pack 72 will collect the entire amount. We also offer a $25 discount for additional siblings, and scholarship assistance is available upon request.
