Webelos are the final steps in the Cub Scout experience. Webelos Scouts are still in Cub Scouting. They take part in Cub Scout pack meetings, events and outings. But the Webelos den also makes its own plans and enjoys many activities too advanced for younger boys.

Webelos scouts don't do achievements and electives as other boys in Cub Scouting do. Webelos Scouts complete activities in the Webelos Handbook and work on activity badges as their monthly program themes.

Webelos Scouts are encouraged to participate in activities that prepare them for becoming Boy Scouts.

Webelos I is for boys in the fourth grade are 9 or 10 years old.

Webelos II is for boys in the fifth grade are 10 or 11 years old.

The ultimate goal of a Webelos Scout is too earn his Arrow of Light badge and to cross-over to the Boy Scouts

They meet 2-4 times per month, and earn activity badges.  They also meet with the Pack once a month.
