Making Up Missed Requirements for Cub Scouts
If a Cub Scout has missed requirements, families can often organize a similar activity on their own. For example, if the den went on a hike and your Scout missed it, you could take them on a family hike. If they missed a service project, they could do a small project at home or in your neighborhood. Making up activities this way keeps the Scout engaged and allows them to learn the same lessons as the rest of the den.

My Community Webelos Den Meeting Plan
The *My Community* den meeting plan for Webelos focuses on teaching Scouts about voting, leadership, laws, and community involvement. Activities include learning about majority and plurality voting, speaking with a local elected official, and creating a timeline of a federal law. Webelos will also work in groups to explore how the three branches of government interact. The meeting includes a snack break, where Scouts can reflect on what they’ve learned, followed by a closing ceremony that connects the Scout Law to citizenship and leadership. This meeting helps Webelos understand their role in society and encourages active participation.

Multisport Merit Badge
The Multisport merit badge teaches Scouts about swimming, biking, and running. Scouts learn how to train safely, prevent injuries, and improve endurance. They follow a four-week training plan and track their progress. The badge also covers nutrition, hydration, and good health habits. Scouts choose a multisport format, such as a triathlon or duathlon. They practice each sport and learn how to transition smoothly between them. The final step is completing a multisport event with the required distances. This badge helps Scouts build confidence, set goals, and stay active. It is a fun way to develop lifelong fitness skills.
