Scouting reinforces the skills and values we want our sons to learn while they're having fun.
Being involved in Cub Scouting is fun, challenging, and rewarding. Leaders find that their experiences help them to become better parents.
If a Cub Scout has completed the second grade (or is 9 years old) and has earned the Bobcat Badge, he may start earning the Bear rank. He receives a Bear Scout handbook and Bear neckerchief, but continues to use the Wolf neckerchief slide when beginning the Bear portion of the boy scout trail. He will continue to use the blue Cub Scout Uniform.
This part of the boy scout trail is intended to take one school year, preparing the scout to begin earning his Webelos rank after he completes third grade.
