The Webelos Trail
To earn the Webelos Badge, a Cub Scout must complete the following requirements.
Be an active member of your Webelos den for three months. (Being active means having good attendance, paying your den dues, and working on den projects.)
Complete each of the following Webelos required adventures with your den or family:
Complete two Webelos elective adventures of your den or family's choosing.
With your parent or guardian, complete the exercises in the pamphlet How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide, and earn the Cyber Chip award for your age.
Note: If your family does not have Internet access at home AND you do not have ready Internet access at school or another public place or via a mobile device, the Cyber Chip portion of this requirement may be waived by your parent or guardian.
If the Cub Scout has not previously earned the Bobcat Badge, it must be earned before the scout hits the Trail toward his Webelos Badge.
After the Cub Scout has completed an adventure, he is awarded the adventure's pin at the next Pack meeting.
