| Bobcat Program |
| A boy's first step after registering as a Cub Scout, regardless of his age, is to pass the Bobcat requirements: * Learn and say the Cub Scout Promise * Say and explain the Law of the Pack * Explain the meaning of the word Webelos * Show and explain the Cub Scout sign and handshake * Say the Cub Scout motto and give the salute; explain both * With your parent or guardian, do the activities in How to Protect Your Children from Child Abuse: A Parent's Guide When a boy has learned these things, his parent approves his work and signs his book. He is then eligible to receive his Bobcat badge at a pack ceremony including his parent. He then begins working on the rank for his grade or age. |
