As with all Cub Scout ranks, you must first earn the Bobcat Badge to be eligible to work for this award.
Welcome to the Bear Den
Third Grade
or 8-9 Yrs
Den Leader
Mr Philip
Our Goals Much of the advancement for the Bear rank is done by the scout and their family outside of the den. The parent signs off on the scout’s handbook and the Den Leader records the advancements from the handbook in our tracking Software. The Bear program relies heavily on family involvement, but you will see this gradually change with the scout doing more with their den and more individual direction as they graduate to Webelos.
