Leaping Wolf Syllabus
The work for the Leaping Wolf Badge will take about 6 months to 1 year to complete and there is a lot of homework to be done than for the previous progress badges! Listed below are all the items the cubs cover during the year, and items in bold are work that will be given to the cubs at some point during the year. Not all items have homework. Where there is a form that needs to be filled in, there is a link to that form.
Leaping Wolf is the top Cub award, and significant parental support is required for the cubs to attain this.
