Decision

Any two elective Adventures

Required

Two of the seventeen, chosen by the family and den, and more if you like. Chef Tech needs Whittling done first; others need a pack event, water, an outing or the summer months.

Notes and warnings

Note. The rank page also lists three special electives, Archery Bear, Slingshot and BB Guns, which can only be completed at approved events with qualified instructors. They have no Adventure page and are not drawn here. Ask your pack or council which events offer them.
