Cub Scout Pack 553

Niceville, FL

Thank you for your Service,
Mr. Obie Hardin.

[8 Sep 2024] This morning, one of our past Pack Cubmasters, Mr. Obie Hardin, passed away. He was our Cubmaster from 2015-2018 and has contributed to our Pack ever since. He went on to be the Scoutmaster of Troop 157, a founding member of Troop 1157, and was also a big supporter of the BSA High Adventure program, earning the Grand Slam award in 2022. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife and two sons.

Welcome to Pack 553!

We are a local Cub Scout pack in Niceville, Florida. Whether you are a current Pack 553 family, or just checking us out, this website will give you all the information you need. Pack 553 provides adventures and awesome opportunities for boys and girls in kindergarten through 5th grade! Scouting is a great way for kids to learn new skills and build relationships through camping, hiking, crafting, skits, wood working, physical fitness, field trips, and more. If you are new to us and want more information on how your child can be part of the fun, email our membership coordinator at membership.pack553fl@gmail.com.
