The
Webelos Badge is for boys who have completed third grade, or who are ten years old. The Webelos rank is the first step in a boy’s transition towards a Boy Scout troop. As he completes the requirements in the Webelos Scout Book, he will work on
Activity Badges. These are age-appropriate projects for older Cub Scouts. Activity badges are sorted into five discipline-related groups. They are the
Community Group, the
Mental Skills Groups, the
Outdoor Group, the
Physical Skills Group, and the
Technology Group. Activity Badges can be displayed on the front of the Webelos cap or on the Webelos Colors. During this period, the Webelos Scout should also begin to attend meetings led by adults, and become more familiar with the Boy Scout requirements.
After earning the Webelos badge, the Webelos Scout may receive the
Compass Points emblem and gold “devises” to pin on it as an incentive to complete additional Activity Badges.
Completion of the Forester, Outdoorsman, and Naturalist Activities Badges and completion of a special conservation project alls a Webelos Scout to join the Wolves and Bears in earning the
World Conservation Award as well.
Our First Year Webelos meet from 6:00pm to 7:00pm on Tuesdays at Covenant Presbyterian Church
