Cub Scout Tiger Cub Rank
These are the requirements as they appear
in the 2001 edition of the Cub Scout Tiger Cub Handbook,
and became effective on June 1, 2001.
To begin his path to the Tiger Cub Rank, a boy must do the following to earn
the Tiger Cub Totem:
- Learn the Tiger Cub Motto: Search, Discover, Share
- Learn the Cub Scout Sign
- Learn the Cub Scout Salute
Once he earns the Totem, to earn the Tiger Cub rank the Tiger Cub Scout must
complete a Family Activity, a Den Activity, and a "Go See It" Activity in each
of five Achievement Areas:
- Making My Family Special
- Where I Live
- Keeping Myself Healthy and Safe
- How I Tell It
- Let's Go Outdoors
As he completes each Achievement, he is awarded a bead which is hung from the
Totem.
- He earns a WHITE bead for each required FAMILY
Activity.
- He earns an ORANGE bead for each required DEN
Activity.
- He earns a BLACK bead for each required GO SEE IT
Activity.

Remember, there are NO
performance requirements for a boy. Simply participating and doing one's
best in an activity constitutes completion. |

After completing the fifteen Achievements, the Tiger Cub is awarded the Tiger
Cub Patch. The patch is affixed to the reverse side of the Tiger Cub Totem
until he advances to the Bobcat Rank and begins working on his Wolf Rank. At
that point the Tiger Cub and Bobcat Rank patches are sewn on the Blue Cub Scout
Uniform shirt.
Also, after completing the achievements, the Tiger Cub can be awarded
Tiger Track Beads, which are YELLOW disks attached to the Totem. One
bead is awarded for each group of TEN Electives the Tiger Cub completes. A boy
can work on both Achievements and electives concurrently, but he can't receive
Tiger Track beads until he has earned the Tiger Cub Badge.
