When you and your boy have followed the five steps of the
Tiger Cub, your boy has earned his Tiger Cub badge.
The badge should be ceremoniously presented as soon as
possible at an upcoming Pack meeting.
THE TIGER CUB TRAIL

Boys must earn the Bobcat
Badge before they begin
working on the Tiger Cub
rank. After earning the
Bobcat badge, the boys
can earn the Tiger Cub belt
totem and then begin work
on the Tiger Cub badge
requirements.

The Tiger Cub badge is for
boys who have completed
all 15 parts of the five
achievements, that is, five
family activities, five den
activities, and five Go See
It outings. During a
ceremony, the Tiger Cub
badge is presented to the
adult Leader at a pack
meeting, who in turn
presents the badge to the
boy.

While your boy is working
on advancement, you can
help. Besides signing his
handbook as Akela once
he has done his best, let
your den leader know of
any completed parts of
achievements at your next
den meeting. The den
leader will keep a record of
your boy's individual
progress on the Tiger Cub
Den Advancement Chart. In
addition, your boy, with your
help, will keep track of his
own advancement on the
Tiger Trail chart found on
page 152 of his handbook.
This encourages him and
helps him see his progress
toward the Tiger Cub rank.

The advancement
requirements are written in
such a way as to give you
room to customize
activities for your boy and
your den. There are no
performance requirements
for Tiger Cubs. Boys should
never be "tested" or placed
in a position where they will
not be successful. Simply
participating in the
activities and doing his
best constitutes completion.

The den activities and 'Go
See It' outings are intended
to be completed with the
den. If a Tiger Cub is
unable to participate in an
activity because of illness
or a conflict, however, you
may work with him to
complete these
requirements. For your boy
to receive the full benefit of
the program, it is important
for you, his adult partner, to
make every effort to attend
meetings regularly.
At the end of the school
year, he will graduate into a
Wolf Cub Scout den. Later,
he will be in a Bear den,
and then he'll become a
Webelos Scout.
