Progress
Towards Ranks Award
This award is given to Scouts as they strive to earn
the Wolf badge or Bear badge. As they complete 3 achievements towards the rank
badge they will receive 1 bead to add to the award. They will have all 4 beads
upon completion of the 12 requirements of the rank badge. Wolf candidates earn
yellow beads and Bear candidates earn red beads. Scouts who have earned the Wolf
badge the previous year may continue to display the yellow beads as they earn
beads for the Bear trail.
Beads are typically awarded by the Den Leader during
a regular Den meeting. The purpose of this award is to encourage and display the
progress the Scout has made as they progress through the requirements to receive
the rank badge.
This award is worn on the right pocket hanging down
from the pocket button. Once the Scout is awarded the appropriate rank badge
they no longer wear this award. However, if they have earned the Wolf badge,
they should retain it for the next year as they progress through the Bear
requirements.
