Becoming a Cub Scout Wolf

Now that you have your Bobcat, you are making your way towards Cub Scouting's highest award - The Arrow of Light! On your way to the Arrow of Light, you will work with other boys in a group called a Den. You may know most of your fellow Cub Scouts, and others may be new. Take some time getting to know each other - then get started on your Wolf badge.

The Wolf rank is for boys who have completed first grade (or are age 8). To become a Wolf Cub Scout, a boy must pass 12 skills. His parent must approve each achievement by signing his book. The den leader keeps a record of his progress on the Cub Scout Den Advancement Chart, and gives him recognition at a den meeting for passing each milestone. When a boy has completed the 12 achievements to the satisfaction of his parent, the den leader indicates this on the Den Advancement Report, and turns it in. The Wolf badge is obtained and presented to his parent or guardian at the next pack meeting in an impressive advancement ceremony. After he has earned the Wolf badge, he is encouraged to work on the 22 Wolf electives until he completes second grade (or becomes 9). More than 100 elective projects, he earns a Gold Arrow Point to wear under the Wolf badge. For each additional 10 elective projects completed, he earns a Silver Arrow Point. These are presented at pack meeting in an advancement ceremony
