The Wolf rank is for girls and boys who have finished first grade (or who are 8 years old). To earn the Wolf badge, a Scout must complete the six required Adventures and two elective Adventures. The Scout will receive an Adventure loop for each completed Adventure. When the Scout has met all requirements, the Wolf badge is presented to their parent/guardian at the next pack meeting.Â
After the Scout has earned the Wolf badge, a Wolf Scout can work on the remaining 12 Wolf electives until he/she finishes second grade (or turns 9 years old). They can choose elective Adventures that may show them new hobbies and teach them skills that will be useful during the BSA Scout years. When he/she completes an elective Adventure, the Scout receives an additional Adventure loop to wear on their belt.
