5/30 – Cub Scout Rangemaster Training is available!

We’re excited to offer an upcoming Cub Scout Rangemaster Training for those interested in helping run BB gun, slingshot, and archery ranges at Council and District events.
Shooting sports are often a highlight of a Cub Scout’s experience, and helping Scouts learn these skills in a safe, supportive environment can be incredibly rewarding. We hope you’ll consider getting trained and joining us!

Training Overview:
  • Required for anyone volunteering as a Cub Scout BB Gun/Slingshot or Archery Rangemaster
  • Certification is valid for two years
  • Participants are asked to assist with two District or Council events during that time (such as Day Camps, Camporees, Webelorees, AOL-o-Rees, or other Cub Scout shooting sports activities)
  • No prior experience needed
Requirements to Participate:
  • Must be a registered Scouts BSA adult volunteer
  • Must have completed Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT)
  • Must be at least 18 years old
Important Notes:
  • The Cub Scout Archery Rangemaster certification allows you to run archery activities at the district/council level for Cub Scouts (Lions through AOL), but not at the troop or crew level. A USA Archery Level 1 certification is required for those events.
  • The Cub Scout BB Rangemaster certification does allow you to run BB gun and slingshot activities at the Scouts BSA troop/crew level.
We’d love to have more trained volunteers to help deliver safe and fun shooting sports programs for our Scouts.
