Wolf Den Curriculum

Master Den Meeting List

Following this plan will allow all the boys to earn their rank, numerous electives, and stay on track for Faith in God and the Religious Knot Emblem. If the pack or den completes a conservation service project, completing this list will also allow the boys to earn the Cub Scout Conservation Award. Boys should complete the Bobcat Badge Requirements at home with their parents. Parents need to read pages 1-13 of their son’s Wolf Handbook and sign page 13.
