One of our Cub Scouts has completed all the adventures for the rank of Wolf Cub Scout. Tonight we honor this scout. Will Cub Scout [name] and parent(s) come forward.

[Name], according to your Wolf Cub Scout Handbook, you have completed all necessary adventures for the rank of Wolf Cub Scout. I am glad you have attained this honor and hope you will continue to progress through the elective adventures until you reach the time to start work on the Bear rank. Before you is a picture of the Wolf Cub Scout badge. You may now wear this badge with pride. Also before you is a candle representing the spirit of Cub Scouting. By advancing to Wolf Cub Scout you have demonstrated the spirit of Cub Scouting, so please light the Wolf Candle.

(directed to parents) I want to tell you how much we appreciate the support you have given [name] in the quest for the Wolf rank. Without your guidance, your child could not have reached this point. Cub Scouting is a family program, and that means not only that your scout is advancing to the Wolf rank, but that the whole family has taken another step upward, too.

As Akela, you have the privilege of presenting the Wolf badge to your child. Please pin it on the left pocket until it can be sewn in place.

Now, will all the Cub Scouts in the audience please stand.
Join me in giving [name] a hand for the fine job of advancement to Wolf rank. (Cub Scouts applaud. Scout and parents return to seats.)
