Pack 217

Webelos is a 20 month program for 4th and 5th grade boys to prepare to join a Boy Scout troop while learning outdoors skills and participating in 20 different activity badges. A well-run group of Webelos is a gradual change from being an 'adult-run' den to being a 'boy-run' patrol ready to fit right into an adventurous scouting troop.

This migration requires the parents and patrol leaders to give the scouts more and more control, decision-making power, and responsibility as they progress in skills, abilities, and maturity. Webelos also provides the scouts with many opportunities to grow in the Webelos Virtues.

• WISDOM
• COURAGE
• SELF-CONTROL
• JUSTICE
• FAITH
• HOPE
• LOVE

Webelos scouts will spend this time completing tasks to earn the highest award available in Cub Scouts the Arrow Of Light award. This badge is one of the few badges that a Cub Scout can wear on his uniform after he has made the transition into Boy Scouting.
