Third graders work toward the Bear rank. The Bear rank is earned by completing six adventures as described below.
1. Complete each of the six required adventures:
2. In addition to the six required adventures, complete at least two elective adventures of your den’s or family’s choosing.
After completing rank requirements, a Bear can stay active throughout the program year by completing elective adventures with the youth's Akela or den, or at district and council hosted events. The scout may try to earn all adventure belt loops before moving on to a Webelos den.
