Leader of Cub Scouts from Lakeland (5)
I believe the answer is:
akela
'leader of cub scouts' is the definition.
(name typically given to a Cub Scout leader)
'from lakeland' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'AKELA' can be found hidden inside 'lakeland'.
(Other definitions for akela that I've seen before include "Cub Scouts adult leader" , "Cub Scout pack leader" , "pack-leader" , "Leader of pack of Cub Scouts - she-wolf in "The Jungle Book"" , "Adult leading cubs" .)
