TIGER CUB, BSA (First Graders)

First graders (boys or girls) and a parent (or another family member) participate in Tiger Cubs.

The Tiger Cub Badge is earned after completing the required Tiger Adventures, at least one Elective Adventure, Cyberchip, and How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide.

The Duty to God Required Adventure, Cyberchip, and the How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide are done at home with parents. Attendance at Den meetings will complete the required adventures and at least one elective.

For Tiger Cub Leaders:

At the first Den meeting, it is strongly recommended that the Den “Make a chart showing all the different ways team members can help the den.” Each scout should “Volunteer to take your turn doing at least two different jobs, one of which is leading the Pledge of Allegiance.”. These actions are required in order to complete the “Team Tiger” required adventure. Don’t get to January and realize all Scouts need to lead the Pledge of Allegiance in order to earn the Tiger Badge.

A meeting in January/early February should include an activity to create a centerpiece for the Annual Blue & Gold ceremony (typically held in late February). The Den with the “best” centerpiece gets a pizza party from the Pack.
