Tigers (1st Grade)

About the Rank

Tigers and their adult partners are just that, partners. They attend meetings, go on adventures like field trips, and complete requirements together.

The adult partner acknowledges the completion of each achievement. The Tiger Scouts also keep track of their advancement using the Adventure Tracking section in the back of their handbooks.

For Ages 6/7 or in 1st Grade
