Our Goals
In the Bear Den, there are 6 required Adventure Belt Loops and 1 Required Elective Belt Loop (you can choose from 13 different electives). This is the year your son will grow in amazing ways.
Summary
Much of the advancements done in the Bear rank are done by the scout with his family outside of the den. The parent signs off in the scout's handbook and the Den Leader records the advancements from the handbook in our tracking Software. The Bear program relies heavily on family involvement, but you will see this gradually change with the scout doing more with his den and more individual direction as he graduates to Webelos.
