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.

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,
