WEBELOS Requirements

Meaning of the Webelos Badge:
The WEBELOS badge is like the emblem on your Webelos cap, except that it also has the word "WEBELOS" and the Scout badge.  The emblem is made up of a gold Scout badge with a blue "W," for WEBELOS, on it.  It shows that you are moving from Cub Scouting to Boy Scouting.
Parts of the WEBELOS Uniform:
WEBELOS Scouts may wear either the blue uniform they wore as Cub Scouts or the khaki and tan uniform they will wear as Boy Scouts.  With either basic uniform, WEBELOS Scouts wear the WEBELOS cap, Webelos neckerchief, WEBELOS neckerchief slide.

Wear your uniform to all den meetings and pack meetings, on campouts and other den activities, at den service projects, and during Anniversary Week in February.  

The Boy Scout Sign:

The Scout sign identifies you as a Scout anywhere in the world. Use it whenever you give the Scout Oath or Scout Law.  The three upraised fingers stand for the three parts of the Scout Oath. The thumb and little finger together stand for the bond between all Scouts.

The Boy Scout Salute:

The Scout salute signifies respect and courtesy.  You use it to salute the flag of the United States of America.  During some ceremonies, you may also salute your Webelos leaders or Boy Scout leaders.  

To give the Scout salute, place the fingers of your right hand in position as for the Scout sign.  Bring the hand smartly up to your head, palm sideways, until your forefinger touches the edge of your cap above the right eye or, if you are capless, your forehead above the right eye.  When the salute is completed, snap your hand down quickly to your side.  

 

The Boy Scout Handclasp:

To give the Scout handclasp, use your left hand instead of the right.  Do not interlock your fingers.  The Scout handclasp is a token of friendship.  That's why you use your left hand-the one nearest your heart.

Boy Scout Oath or Promise:

On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

The Boy Scout Law:

A Scout is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent.

The Boy Scout Motto:

Be Prepared!

The Boy Scout Slogan:

Do a good turn daily.

The Outdoor Code:

As an American, I will do my best to -
bulletBe clean in my outdoor manners
bulletBe careful with fire
bulletBe considerate in the outdoors, and
bulletBe conservation minded.
