Our Goals Webelos is a program for 4th graders to prepare to join a Boy Scout Troop while learning outdoor skills and participating in different adventures. A well-run group of Webelos is a gradual change from being an 'adult-run' den to being a 'boy-run' patrol ready to fit right into an adventurous scouting troop.
Summary Webelos is for 4th graders to prepare to join a Boy Scout troop while learning outdoors skills and participating in many adventures. A well-run group of Webelo Scouts is a gradual change from being an 'adult-run' den to being a 'scout-run' patrol ready to fit right into an adventurous Boy Scout troop. This migration requires the parents and den leaders to give the scouts more and more control, decision-making power, and responsibility as they progress in skills, abilities, and maturity. Additionally, Webelo Scouts camp regularly and work with a Boy Scout Troop to prepare to become a Boy Scout before the end of 5th Grade. The Webelos program has two major milestones - the Webelos rank badge to be earned at the 4th grade level and the Arrow of Light to be earned at the 5th grade. The final part of Webelos is bridging over into a Boy Scout troop selected individually by the scout.
