Webelos Badge Requirements
Your Webelos Den Leader will now sign off your
activities (your parent or guardian does not sign off the activities
as they did when you were a Wolf or Bear).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Have an adult member of your family read the
Webelos Scout Parent Guide that comes with this book (pages 1-22)
and sign here.
- Be an active member of your Webelos den for
3 months (Active means having good attendance, paying den dues,
working on den projects).
- Know and explain the meaning of the Webelos
badge.
- Point out the three special parts of the Webelos
Scout uniform. Tell when to wear the uniform and when not to wear
it.
- Earn the Fitness and Citizen activity badges
and one other activity badge from a different activity group .
- Plan and lead a flag ceremony in your den that
includes the U.S. flag.
- Show that you know and understand the
requirements to be a Boy Scout.
- Demonstrate the Scout salute, Scout sign,
and Scout handshake. Explain when you would use them.
- Explain the Scout Oath, Scout Law, Scout
motto, and Scout slogan
- Explain and agree to follow the Outdoor
Code.
- Faith
After completing the rest of requirement 8, do these (a, b, and
c):
- Know: Tell what you have learned
about faith.
- Commit: Tell how these faith experiences
help you live your duty to God. Name one faith practice that
you will continue to do in the future.
- Practice: After doing these requirements,
tell what you have learned about your beliefs.
And do one of these (d OR e):
- Earn the religious emblem of your faith*
- Do two of these:
- Attend the mosque, church, synagogue,
temple, or other religious organization of your choice,
talk with your religious leader about your beliefs. Tell
your family and your Webelos den leader what you learned.
- Discuss with your family and Webelos
den leader how your religious beliefs fit in with the Scout
Oath and Scout Law, and what character-building traits your
religious beliefs have in common with the Scout Oath and
Scout Law.
- With your religious leader, discuss and
make a plan to do two things you think will help you draw
nearer to God. Do these things for a month.
- For at least a month, pray or meditate
reverently each day as taught by your family, and by your
church, temple, mosque, synagogue, or religious group.
- Under the direction of your religious
leader, do an act of service for someone else. Talk about
your service with your family and Webelos den leader. Tell
them how it made you feel.
- List at least two ways you believe you
have lived according to your religious beliefs.
If you earned your faith's religious emblem
earlier in Cub Scouting, and your faith does not have a Webelos
religious emblem, you must complete requirement 8e.
Completion of requirement 8e does not qualify
a youth to receive the religious emblem of his faith.
Webelos Emblems are listed
on pages 68-69.
A list of the various
religious emblems, and the levels in which they can be earned
is also listed on this site. Click

COMPASS POINTS
After you've earned the Webelos badge, you can earn the compass
points emblem. It is awarded after you earn seven activity badges,
four more in addition to the three you earned for the Webelos
badge. Wear your compass points emblem attached to the button
on the right pocket of the Webelos uniform shirt.
After you earn the compass points emblem, you'll
receive a metal compass point for each four additional activity
badges you earn. Pin these compass points on the emblem in the
"E," "W," or "S" positions, in any
order you choose.
You can earn the emblem and all three
compass points by completing 19 activity badges, including the
three required for the Webelos Badge.
