Welcome to the Webelos 1 Trail

The Webelos Trail is an eighteen month program for fourth and fifth grade boys. During their first year, the Webelos scout continues to wear the blue cub scout uniform until he earns the Webelos badge. Once earned, the Webelos scout is then privileged to wear the tan uniform, to distinguish himself from the rest of the cub scouts in the Pack, and to become closer to the Boy Scout Troop. To earn the required achievements, the Webelos Den Leader will now sign off the activities, as opposed to your parent or guardian, as they did when you were a Wolf or Bear).

WEBELOS RANK

As with the Tiger, Wolf and Bear ranks, you must first earn your Bobcat Rank before you can earn your Webelos Rank.
