WEBELOS – 4TH AND 5TH GRADE
Webelos dens are for Scouts who have completed third grade or are ten years old. Webelos Scouts get to work on the five required Webelos adventures and choose two of the 18 elective adventures that are shared by the Webelos and Arrow of Light ranks. After finishing the requirements for an adventure, the Webelos den leader, rather than a parent, approves most of the adventures. For each adventure a Scout completes, they receive a pin to wear on the Webelos colors or on their hat. After completing seven adventures, including five required adventures and two elective adventures, they have earned the Webelos badge.
After earning the Webelos badge, a Webelos Scout can work on the remaining 18 shared Webelos and Arrow of Light electives until they finish fourth grade or turns 11 years old. They can choose elective adventures to learn new skills or hobbies that will be useful during his Boy Scout years. For completing an elective adventure they will receive an additional adventure pin.
