The main difference is that they belong to different national and international organizations.
In the US, Girl Scout troops are members of the national organization, Girl Scouts of the USA. Boy Scout or Scout Troops are members of the national organization, Boy Scouts of America.
Each national organization determines the kind of program the troops will use based on guidelines from the international organization. Both organizations earn badges and other awards, however, the awards and the requirements are different.
The uniforms are different as determined by the national organization.
The way the troops themselves are organized is different.
No. Kind of. Cub Scouts and Boys Scouts are both programs run by the Boy Scouts of America. Individual units (Packs and Troops) are operated by individual, usually non-profit, organizations known as "Chartered Organizations." A particular chartered organization may, but does not have to, operate both a pack and troop (or a venturing crew, but that's a topic for another question).
Boy Scouts are older, can do more activities and are expected to provide their own leadership.
Eagle scout is the top rank within the Boy Scouts.
There is no patron saint of Cub Scouts but they are part of the Boy Scouts. The patron saints of Boy Scouts are St. Amand and St. George.
BOY SCOUTS, CUB SCOUTSEvery boy scout group i know.A group, the cub scouts i belivewell that's when the boys learn
A Cub Scout is a boy who is enrolled in a Cub Scout Pack. Cub Scouts is a branch of the Boy Scouts of America that is made up of boys in 1st Grade to 5th Grade.
The Arrow Of Light is the only Cub Scout award that can be worn on the Boy Scout uniform. Religious knots that are earned as Cub Scouts can also be worn on the Boy Scout uniform but they are actually awarded through the churches in cooperation with the scouts and so not really official scout badges.
I would recomend it.
Cub Scouts is for kids under the age of eleven.
I think you mean 'cub scouts'. if so, they are boy scouts that around younger than 8 or 9
They are called Boy Scouts. Scouts ages 5-10 are called Cub Scouts. Scouts ages 14-21 can become Venture Scouts.
Yes.
Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts differ in that in Cub Scouts, except for the Bobcat, the ranks are earned at the appropriate age. They do not go back and earn previous unearned badges. Boy Scouts earn each rank in order regardless of age or when they joined. Cub Scouts: Bob Cat is always earned first regardless of age. Tiger Cub - 1st grade Wolf - 2nd grade Bear - 3rd grade WEBELOS - 4th - 5th grades Arrow of Light - 4th - 5th grades after WEBELOS is earned. Boy Scouts: Scout Tenderfoot 2nd Class 1st Class Star Life Eagle
Webelo (correctly spelled Webelos) is the highest "rank" (for lack of a better word) in the Cub Scouts. It is a period of time that prepares Cub Scouts to transition to the Boy Scouts. WEBELOS is actually an acronym that stands for We Be Loyal Scouts.
The Cub Scouts are not a company, they are an organization for boys and they usually go on to become Boy Scouts. They earn merit badges by doing good deeds and learning different skills sets.
