Tiger Den

🐯 Tiger Scouts

(1st Grade | Ages 6–7)

Tiger Scouts are first graders who are ready to dive into the world of Cub Scouting with more independence, responsibility, and adventure—while still having a parent or adult partner by their side.

It’s the next step after Lion Scouts, or a great place to begin for new families!

🧭 What Do Tiger Scouts Do?

Tiger Scouts participate in fun, hands-on adventures that encourage:

• Teamwork and friendship

• Exploring the outdoors

• Learning important life skills

• Building character and confidence

Each Tiger Den meets regularly (usually 1–2 times a month) for short, engaging activities. They also participate in monthly Pack meetings and events with other Dens.

🏕️ Sample Tiger Adventures

Here are some of the fun themes Tiger Scouts explore:

• Games Tigers Play – practicing good sportsmanship and having fun

• My Tiger Jungle – discovering nature in your own backyard

• Team Tiger – working together and being a good teammate

• Tiger Bites – learning about healthy eating and manners

• Tiger Circles: Duty to God – beginning to explore faith and values

Scouts also choose from elective adventures like building, hiking, or learning about jobs in the community.

🎖️ Earning the Tiger Rank

To earn the Tiger Badge, Scouts complete:

✅ 6 required adventures
✅ At least 1 elective adventure
✅ Participation in a Pack event and a service project

Each adventure earned adds a loop to their Tiger Adventure Belt, a visible sign of their growing skills and achievements.

👨‍👩‍👦 A Family Experience

Tiger Scouts still participate with an adult partner, making it a fantastic opportunity for shared experiences and building stronger family connections. No experience is required—just a willingness to learn and have fun together!

🌟 Why Tiger Scouts?

Being a Tiger Scout means more than just earning badges. It’s about:

• Building confidence

• Making new friends

• Developing values like respect and responsibility

• Having a safe, structured, and fun environment to grow
