The Lion program weaves traditional Scouting concepts of character development, leadership skills, personal fitness and citizenship into activities that are age-appropriate and fun for the Scouts and their parents. Lions work with their fellow Lion Scouts and each Scout’s adult partners. The program is focused on parent planning and delivery with support from the Cub Scout pack using literature specifically designed for the younger age group.
Lions earn the Bobcat badge at the end of the year, after completing their other Lion activities.

Note to Parents
The Lion Program is a partner program with both the Lion Cub and their Adult Partner participating in den activities.
The Lion Program is a shared leadership approach where Den Adults take turns in leading a Den Adventure throughout the year.
As the Lion Cub completes each adventure, he or she will receive a sticker to place in their handbook and an adventure loop for that adventure, that they can wear on their Cub Scout belt.
Bring the Lion Handbook to Den meetings to have your cub’s achievements recorded by the Den Leader.
