There are many awards available to cub scouts and boy scouts that often go unearned simply because the leaders are not aware of them. Here you can find requirements and information about the common world conservation award and religious award, as well as less known heritage, emergency preparedness, physical fitness, and other recognitions. Making additional scout awards available to your den or patrol members gives them opportunities to try new things and expand their skills.
Recognition of accomplishments is important to keep the boys involved and advancing in skill and rank. Making the awards meaningful through strict requirement checking and thoughtful presentation ceremonies will improve scout activity and ongoing participation.

Is there an Emergency Preparedness Pin in Cub Scouts? Webelos Den Leader.
Nov 26, 2012 - Scouter Paul
David - Yes, the award is also for Cub Scouts.  Just read the requirements for the award (linked above) and you'll see that is the case.

When does the Webelo receive his colors?
Nov 16, 2013 - Matt
C.D.- The Webelos Colors are part of the Uniform. Some Packs do purchase them for the scouts. (We do.) Otherwise you may purchase the colors at your local scout shop. However, some Packs have a ceremony for incoming Webelos. The Buffalo Ceremony on this very site would be great for this. Yours Yours in Scouting, Matt

Is there a form that must be signed by pack officers in order to obtain the actual Bobcat patch?
Nov 17, 2014 - Scouter Paul
@Linda - A completed advancement form is required.

Is there an actual work sheet or guidelines for the stations at a Webelos Klondike derby?  
Jan 19, 2015 - Scouter Paul
@sandra - No.  A Klondike can be pretty much any winter event - there are no rules, requirements, regulations, ... for what topics or skills are covered at one.  It's up to the imagination of those that put the event together. But, there is some helpful info at this page.

i understand that the lions are only a new program. my so meets with his den every week instead of once a month. im afraid that he will become uninterested with scouting due to the fact that lions only earn the bobcat achievement. does anyone have any ideas on other things he can earn while he is a lion so that i can keep him interested.
Feb 20, 2018 - Jane
@liz - Hi Liz, Lions currently earn immediate recognition stickers after they complete each adventure (elective or required).  After a Lion has completed the 5 required adventures, the Lion is recognized with a Lion badge (patch).

However, the Lion program will be coming out of pilot later this year (effective with the 2018-2019 program year).  After it comes out of pilot, Lions will earn adventure loops (belt loops).

Lions do not earn the rank of Bobcat, which is only for older Cub Scouts.  After Lions graduate to a Tiger den, then they can earn the Bobcat rank.

There are some generic patches that you can get at the Scout shop that might help you to keep him interested.  The Lion program is intended to be an introductory program for Cub Scouts, so that is why it doesn't have a lot of awards.
