Pack 230 aims to create a positive Scouting experience with hands-on activities, opportunities for service, and a welcoming atmosphere.
We are based in Plainfield, Connecticut, but our volunteer-led dens can form in communities around the region. There is no single fixed meeting location for every family.
What if my Scout needs accommodations?
We welcome conversations about what helps your Scout participate. Families and leaders can plan together around communication, sensory needs, pacing, and activity adaptations.
Please share sensitive details privately with appropriate leaders, not through public website forms.
Good questions to ask
Where does Pack 230 meet?
Our dens can meet in communities around the region. Meeting arrangements depend on local volunteers and available dens; ask us about current opportunities.
Is Pack 230 only for neurodivergent Scouts?
No. Our goal is to welcome Scouts of different abilities while offering an inclusive approach for families who value flexible, small-group experiences.
What will my Scout do?
Age-appropriate adventures can include outdoor skills, games, teamwork, service, character development, and pack traditions.
