874 Leaders

All leaders are volunteers who are dedicated to bringing the values and mission of Scouting America to the scouts in the Pack. With every parent that steps up to fill a role, the program gets better!

Key 3 Leaders

Every pack has a “Key 3” — the Committee Chair, Cubmaster, and Chartered Organization Representative. They work together to make sure the pack is well-run, safe, and fun for the kids. Think of them as the leadership triangle that keeps everything balanced.

Ryan Levin - Cubmaster

Cubmaster, which is the lead scout-facing volunteer, and will also be the Webelos den leader.  I have a rising fourth-grade daughter ("Webelos" scout) in the pack who has been enrolled since first-grade, and my son (rising 7th grade) is currently a Tenderfoot Scout in Scouts BSA Troop 75.

Work directly with the den leaders, den chiefs, and pack committee chair and members to make sure that all dens are functioning well. Plan the den and pack programs with the help of other leaders. Lead the monthly pack meeting with the help of others. Involve all dens in some way. Coordinate the total Cub Scout program in the pack.
 📨 Email the Cubmaster.

Jeff Rosen - Committee Chair

The goofy behind-the-scenes paperwork guy. I oversee pack planning, registration, and charter renewal, and liaise with the ECVFD to ensure alignment and support. I also advise the Cubmaster on policy and chartered organization matters. Assist with committee meetings and assign various pack roles to our volunteers. Coordinate leader recruitment and facility needs. Support fundraising and manage finances with the Treasurer. Maintain pack records and property. Sometimes asked to step in as stand-in for the Cubmaster if needed. Shoshana is in the 🐻's den and David is his first year as a 🦁.

Also ask me about Cub Scout Summer Day Camp!
📨 Email the Committee Chair.

Justin Carlson - Charter Organization Rep (COR)

Represents the Ellicott City Volunteer Fire Department, our chartering organization. This role connects the pack to the chartering organization’s mission and community, approves leaders, and ensures the pack aligns with both Scouting America and the organization.

Liz Schroen - Marketing Chair

Hi, I’m Liz! I have two sons in the program. JJ is a Bear (third grade), and Wyatt is joining this year as a Lion (kindergarten). This is my third year as a den leader. I also help out with marketing and communications. I was a Girl Scout and am glad I can help create the same fun memories for my kids. My favorite scouting activity is singing silly songs around the campfire. I love that Pack 874 is such a well organized and active group. We’ve made lots of new friends through the program.

Chris Bare - Asst Cubmaster (Events)

John Stoneham - Chair Emeritus

My name is John Stoneham. I have a 5th-grader ("AOL" scout) in the pack who has been enrolled since kindergarten, and my son (10th grade) is currently a First Class Scout in Scouts BSA Troop 794. I serve as one of our den leaders and the previous Committee Chair (lead volunteer on the behind-the-scenes / paperwork end of things).

Den Leaders

Den Leaders are volunteer Cub Scout leaders, usually parents, who guide a small group of Cub Scouts of the same grade level to complete their program's activities and adventures. They work with assistant Den Leaders or other parents to plan and conduct den meetings, ensure Cub Scouts learn skills, progress toward rank, and transition to the next program level.
