Wolf Rank Advancement

Here’s How to Help Your Scout Advance!
The Wolf rank brings more exciting indoor and outdoor activities for second grade age youth, increasing in complexity and independence from the earlier Tiger and Lion years.
To earn the Wolf badge, a Scout must complete six required adventures, plus two elective adventures from among the 20 electives in the Wolf Handbook.
- The National Resource page for Wolf Adventures is here. Each Adventure page there lists the Requirements and shares a selection of “Activity Cards” that could be used to complete each Requirement.
- For more resources, see this AAC District Page for Wolf. Each Adventure page there has videos and links to help learn the Adventure topic plus “Assembled” Den Meeting Plans that take the Requirements and/or National activity ideas that are fun, simple and easy and put them into Den Meeting Plans you can use. Word versions of those plans are attached below if you would like to edit to fit your Den.
