Senior Webelos (5th Grade)

About the Rank

Pronounced “WEE-buh–los“, the word “Webelos” means WE’ll BE LOyal Scouts.
The Webelos Program is more challenging than Lion, Tiger, Wolf, and Bear programs for younger Cub Scouts. Webelos Scouts take part in Cub Scout pack meetings and activities as well as Webelos den meetings, activities, and outdoor fun.
Senior Webelos may work towards their Arrow of Light badges.
For Ages 9/10 or 4th Grade
