Fast Tracks for 5th grade Webelos Scouts

From MeritBadgeDotOrg

Fast Tracks for 5th grade Webelos Scouts is only for Webelos who have completed the 4th Grade Fast Track Plan. For other plan options, see the Webelos Fifth Grade Program.

Fast Tracks is a series of den meeting plans (two den meetings per month) designed to be used in conjunction with the youth handbooks. By following the these plans, active Scouts can earn their Tiger, Wolf, Bear, or Webelos rank by February, usually in time for the Blue & Gold Banquet. After these meetings, Scouts continue to meet to work on other electives, Belt Loops and Pins, and other Cub Scout Awards through the rest of the year. All Cub Scouts must first earn their Bobcat Badge.

Use the Fast Tracks as-is or as a resource for your own meeting plans. MeritBadge.Org offers a wealth of other resources to get you started, Belt Loop and Pin Worksheets and Cub Scout Monthly Themes with Program Helps! Also see the Fast Tracks FAQ.

5th grade Webelos who have not completed the Fast Tracks for 4th grade Webelos Scouts should use the Webelos Fifth Grade Program.

Using this plan, 5th Grade Webelos
can earn their Arrow of Light Award in under five months.
