About Wolf Scouts


A Wolf Scout is a boy in the 2nd grade and whom may have been in Cub Scouts the previous year or just joined. You will meet 1-2 times a month plus one PACK meeting each month and use the Wolf Den handbook to achieve the Wolf Rank by school years end.

Please see your Wolf handbook (or 'Bobcat Badge' link at left) for the requirements for your first badge, the Bobcat Badge, which will teach you the basics of Cub Scouting and is the first badge earned by any Cub Scout if this is your first year in Cub Scouting.

Wolf Badge Requirements


The Wolf Badge requirements consist simply of earning the 6 "core" Adventure awards shown below and 1 additional "elective" Adventure selected from an optional list of 13.  The specific requirements for the core 6 are listed below with an attached file below including all Wolf requirements and electives.  These are of course also outlined with additional content in your Wolf Scout Handbook.
