Den Chief Oath
I promise to help the scouts in my Den to the best of my ability, to encourage, guide, and protect them in all Den and Pack activities, and show them by my example what a Boy Scout is.
I will strive to be prompt and dependable, and to cooperate with the Leaders in carrying out the Den program.
As each Scout becomes eligible, I will encourage him to advance to the next rank and continue along the scouting trail.
As each Webelos Scout becomes eligible, I will do all in my power to interest him in becoming a Boy Scout.
