Tiger Cubs is an exciting introduction to the scouting program for first grade boys (or 7 years old) excited to get going! Tiger Cubs do stuff - lots of stuff - with their adult partners. This program is intended to open up the world to inquisitive minds along with the caring guidance of adults. The first steps along the Boy Scout Trail are laid here and every rank advancement through the scouting program builds on the basic categories of activity done as tigers.
The Tiger Cub program runs on two levels. The scout and his adult partner meet weekly to do activities centered around the family. Then, the scout and adult partner meet with the rest of the tiger den to fulfill Den Activity and Go See It requirements.
To begin his path to the Tiger Cub Rank, a boy must do the following to earn the Tiger Cub Totem:
- Learn the Tiger Cub Motto: Search, Discover, Share
- Learn the Cub Scout Sign
- Learn the Cub Scout Salute
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:
- Making My Family Special
- Where I Live
- Keeping Myself Healthy and Safe
- How I Tell It
- Let's Go Outdoors
- He earns an ORANGE bead for each required DEN Activity.
- He earns a WHITE bead for each required FAMILY Activity.
- He earns a BLACK bead for each required GO SEE IT Activity.
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. The patch is temporarly fixed on the left pocket, until he advances to the Bobcat Rank and begins working on his Wolf Rank. At that point the Tiger Cub and Bobcat Rank patches are sewn on the Blue Cub Scout Uniform shirt.
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
