Tiger Cub Scout Rank

Tiger Requirements

Effective June 1, 2006, Boys must earn the Bobcat Badge before they begin working on the Tiger Cub rank.
 

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. 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.

To begin his path to the Tiger Cub Rank, a boy must do the following to earn the Tiger Cub Totem:

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:

  1. Making My Family Special

  2. Where I Live
