BSA's Webelos Planning Guide is followed by the Webelos leaders to ensure your Webelos earns:

  • The Webelos badge in January of their 4th grade year

  • The Arrow of Light in January or February of their 5th grade year and

  • Joins a Boy Scout troop in March of their 5th grade year.

    • This gives parents and new Scouts time to plan for summer camp.

    • Attending camp the first summer is the best assurance of success in Boy Scouting.
