Webelos
Fourth-grade pack members
Webelos is a rank in Cub Scouts for children typically aged 9-10, bridging the gap between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts.
The name is an acronym for "We'll Be Loyal Scouts." A Webelos den prepares members for the transition to a Scout troop: My son crossed over from Webelos to Boy Scouts last spring.
