Cub Scout Pack 4034 recently awarded two of their Webelos scouts, R.J. McClelland and Blake Dewey, the highest award in Cub Scouting at their monthly pack meeting.
The Arrow of Light award is the highest award available to Cub Scouts. It requires the Scout to have earned the Webelos Scout badge and eight activity badges. In addition to the skill and activity requirements of the preceding ranks, the Arrow of Light requires Scouts to learn the Scout Promise and Scout Law, and visit one meeting and one activity of a Boy Scout troop, in preparation for advancing to the Boy Scouts.
Earning the Arrow of Light will help earn many of the requirements for the lower ranks of the Boy Scouts. The Arrow of Light award is the only Cub Scout award that can be worn on a Boy Scout uniform. Cub Scout Pack 4034 meets every Monday night at 7 p.m. at the Endless Mountains Mission Center in West Burlington.
