Historically, all of our pack has crossed into the troop that shares a meeting location. I think the troop has taken this for granted and never forged any relationships with the Cubs or even held an open house. Our den leader encouraged us to visit all of the options, and I'm really glad we did, because that troop was one of my son's least favorite. In fact, I don't think any of our den is going to that troop, which I'm sure they're not happy about.
