The Cub Scout Advancement Trail

Bobcat

The bobcat rank is where every Cub Scout starts, regardless of their grade/age. Requirements for Bobcat cover the basics of scouting, including

• Learn and say the Cub Scout motto, the Scout Oath, and the Scout Law, and tell what they mean.

• Show the Cub Scout sign, salute, and handshake, and tell what they mean.

• With a parent or guardian, complete the exercises in the pamphlet "How to Protect Your Children from Child Abuse: A Parent's Guide"

When all requirements are completed, the youth has earned the Bobcat badge.

Then, scouts will work on the rank according to their grade level.
