Cub Scouting is all about adventure! To earn their rank badge, Arrows of Light complete five “adventures,” which are collections of themed, multidisciplinary activities. They also complete safety exercises.
The Arrow of Light rank requirements include topics such as camping, citizenship, and Scout skills.
Arrow of Light Rank Requirements
1. Be active in your Webelos den for at least six months since completing the fourth grade or for at least six months since becoming 10 years old.
2. Complete each of the following Arrow of Light required adventures with your den or family:
a. Building a Better World
b. Camper
c. Duty to God in Action
d. Scouting Adventure
3. Complete one Webelos/Arrow of Light elective adventure of your den or family’s choosing.
4. With your parent or adult partner, complete the exercises in the pamphlet How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide, and earn the Cyber Chip award for your age.*
*If your family does not have Internet access at home AND you do not have ready Internet access at school or another public place or via a mobile device, the Cyber Chip portion of this requirement may be waived by your parent or adult partner.
