Recognizing a Cub's Progress
on the Wolf and Bear Trails
Your boy doesn't have to wait until he completes his entire Wolf or Bear
trail before being recognized for his work. As a Wolf, when he completes any
three achievements, his den leader can present the Progress Toward Ranks
patch to him. It's a diamond with a leather (or plastic) thong attached and
a gold bead attached to one end. It is worn on the button of the right shirt
pocket. Each time the boy completes three achievements he will receive
another gold bead. After he gets his fourth gold bead, he will receive his
Wolf badge at a pack meeting.
As a Bear, red beads are presented for each three Bear achievements
earned. After he gets his fourth red bead, he will receive his Bear badge at
a pack meeting. Cub Scouts may continue to wear this emblem after ranks are
earned until they become Webelos Scouts.
As your boy completes the requirements for the achievements on the Wolf
and Bear trails, be sure to review his work and sign his book in the place
for Akela's OK. At his next den meeting, he should show his book to his den
leader who will record his progress and sign the book on the line provided.
