Earning the
Webelos Badge
This program is for boys who have completed third grade (or are age 10). A
boy may begin working on the Webelos badge as soon as he joins a Webelos den.
The Webelos badge
is the fourth rank in Cub Scouting (higher than Bobcat, Wolf, and Bear). This
is the first step in his transition from the Webelos den to the Boy Scout
troop. As he completes the requirements found in the Webelos Scout Book, he
will work on activity badges, attend meetings led by adults, and become familiar
with the Boy Scout requirements—all leading to the Arrow of Light Award.
To earn the Webelos badge, you must be active in your den at least three months
and complete the requirements.
In addition to
the Webelos Badge, Arrow Points can be earned for work done on a multitude
of Electives. Belt loops and pins can also be earned for sports and academic
accomplishments.
The Meaning of the Webelos Badge
The Webelos badge has a Webelos emblem on it, which contains a blue W, the
word Webelos, and a small Scout emblem at the bottom. It means you are on
the Webelos trail that leads from Cub Scouting to Boy Scouting.
The Parts of Your Uniform
Webelos Scouts may wear either the blue uniform they wore as Cub Scouts or
the tan shirt and olive green trousers they win wear as Boy Scouts. You and
your family decide which one you will wear. With either basic uniform, Webelos
Scouts wear the Webelos cap, Webelos neckerchief, and Webelos neckerchief
slide.
