One thing your scout is sure to get, is a lot of patches. Scouts may earn other awards by completing requirements during den meetings or at home. For awards completed outside of den meetings, parents are asked to help document the completion of requirements and provide documentation to their son's den leader. This is usually done via Scoutbook.com . There are so many to earn, and it can also be confusing on where they should go. Most patches will go onto their red brag vest, but if you are unsure you can always check with a Pack leader.
Here are just a few of the awards available to Cub Scouts.
