Free Wolf Award Tracker Printable
If your Wolf Scout has completed an Adventure, the next step is making sure they actually receive the award for it.
That is what this Wolf Award Tracker is for.
This printable is not meant to track every requirement or plan out the whole Wolf year. It is a simple checklist to help parents and den leaders keep track of which Wolf Adventure belt loops and rank awards have already been received.
What Awards Do Wolf Scouts Receive?
Wolf Scouts work on Wolf Adventures during their 2nd grade year.
When a Wolf completes an Adventure, they receive the Adventure belt loop for that Adventure.
Wolf Scouts may also earn the Wolf badge of rank after completing the required Wolf Adventures and the needed elective Adventures.
So for this tracker, the main awards to keep track of are:
- Wolf Adventure belt loops
- the Wolf badge of rank
- any optional extra awards your pack chooses to track
This printable gives you a simple place to mark off which awards have already been received.
Wolf Adventure Belt Loops
Wolf Scouts receive belt loops when they complete Adventures.
Because Wolves may complete Adventures at den meetings, pack events, family activities, outdoor activities, or summer events, it can be easy for awards to get missed or delayed.
A simple award tracker helps you see:
- which Adventure belt loops have been earned
- which belt loops have already been handed out
- which awards still need to be picked up or presented
- which awards may need to be checked in Scoutbook or with your advancement chair
What Are The Wolf Cub Scout Requirements?
The Wolf Rank is earned by second graders. For Wolf Scouts to earn their Rank Badge during the year they will have to complete the following requirements:
- Complete the 6 Required Core Adventures.
- Complete 2 of the Elective Adventures.
Wolf Badge of Rank
The Wolf badge of rank is the main rank award for 2nd grade Cub Scouts.
Once a Wolf completes the current Wolf rank requirements, they can receive the Wolf badge.
This tracker gives you a place to mark that the Wolf badge has been received, so it does not get lost in the shuffle with Adventure belt loops and pack meeting awards.
The Wolf Rank is earned by second graders. For Wolf Scouts to earn their Rank Badge during the year they will have to complete the following requirements:
Where Does The Wolf Rank Badge Go?
The Wolf Rank Badge is placed on the left pocket of the cub scout uniform. It is placed at the bottom of the diamond. (see image)
Why Use An Awards Tracker?
Even if you already track Adventure completion somewhere else, it can still help to have a separate award tracker.
Adventure completion and award presentation are not always the same thing.
A Scout may finish an Adventure one week, but the belt loop may not be handed out until the next pack meeting. If you are tracking several Scouts, multiple den levels, or a busy pack schedule, it is easy to forget what has already been awarded.
This printable is especially helpful for:
• anyone organizing awards for pack meetings
• den leaders
• parents
• advancement chairs
• pack committee members
How To Use A Wolf Awards Tracker?
Print the tracker and keep it with your den binder, parent folder, or advancement records.
As awards are handed out, check them off on the tracker.
You can use it to help answer simple questions like:
- Did my Wolf Scout already receive this Adventure belt loop?
- Which belt loops still need to be awarded?
- Has the Wolf badge already been presented?
- Do I need to follow up with the den leader or advancement chair?
This is meant to be simple. It is not a full planning system. It is just an easy way to keep award handouts organized.
