Challenge Award Rolling Programme

We hope that your cubs will enjoy working towards and achieving lots of badges during their time in Cubs. The pinnacle of achievement in Cubs is he Chief Scout’s Silver Award.

Four out of the seven challenge awards are suitable for us to work towards during our regular Cub Pack Nights. We have a rolling programme for our termly activities that encompasses these Challenge Awards so that if your cub is with us for most of the Cub age range (8 to 10 1/2 years old) they will have a good chance of achieving the Chief Scout’s Silver Award.
