Bear Den: 3rd Grade

Welcome to the Bear Den

Den Number 7

Third Grade or 8-9 Yrs

Den Leader: See our Leaders Section

The Bear rank is for boys who have finished second grade (or who are 9 years old). To earn the Bear badge, a boy must complete six required adventures and one elective adventure. His parent or guardian and den leader approves each requirement by signing his book, and the boy receives an adventure loop for each adventure. When the boy has met all requirements, the Bear badge is presented to the Scout at the next pack meeting.

After he has earned the Bear badge, a Bear Scout can work on the remaining 12 Bear electives until our Crossover ceremony around the first of June, where dens are promoted to the next den level. He can choose elective adventures that may show him new hobbies and teach him skills that will be useful during his Boy Scout years. When he completes an elective adventure, he receives an additional adventure loop to wear on his belt.
