The Lion program weaves traditional Scouting concepts of character development, leadership skills, personal fitness, and citizenship into age-appropriate and fun activities for the Scouts and their parents. Lions work with their fellow Lion Scouts and each Scout’s adult partners. The program is focused on parent planning and delivery with support from the Cub Scout pack using literature specifically designed for the younger age group.
Lions earn the Bobcat badge at the end of the year after completing their other Lion activities. The requirements and information necessary to earn the Lion's rank are included in the Lion Cub Scout Handbook.

What's Scoutbook?
To assist Scouts, parents, and leaders in keeping track of rank advancements and other awards, as well as to allow for better communications, Pack 467 has subscribed to BSA’s electronic management system known as Scoutbook. Scoutbook is a Web application that makes it easier for our Den Leaders and Committee members to manage Advancement. The benefit is that you, as a parent or guardian of a scout, can also mark off and review advancement records for your Scout. Scoutbook is mobile device friendly and an easy reference for you to see how your Scout progresses throughout the year. Scoutbook is free for parents to track their Scout. Our Pack has purchased the Pack Plan to make our Leader's jobs easier.
