Welcome to the Tiger Den!

What is a Tiger?
Information from usscouts.org: WELCOME TO CUB SCOUTING: EARNING THE TIGER RANK
A child who is 7 years old or is in the first grade is a Tiger and must register with their parent or adult guardian. This is unique relative to other ranks in Cub Scouting. Tigers and their adult partners are just that, partners. They attend meetings together, go on adventures like pack activities, camping, derby participation, etc., and complete requirements together. Their adventures are found in the Tiger Handbook.
Like all other new Cub Scouts, a Tiger must first earn their Bobcat rank. After completing the requirements for Bobcat they may go on to complete the requirements for the Tiger rank and the many electives that are offered for their rank. Need to update your scout's achievement status? Submit their accomplishment in Scoutbook.
