Decision

4.1.1.0. Which rank the Cub Scout is working on

Required

Six ranks, each tied to a grade. Dens are named for the rank their members are working to achieve, so this is settled before anything else on the plan.

Notes and warnings

Tip. Elective Adventures are where the flexibility lives. The Guide points to them for differing interests and school schedules, and specifically for summertime programming, which is the part of the year a den that meets on the school calendar would otherwise lose.
