Webelos: Into the Wild
Venture "into the woods" on this two hour program and complete an Arrow of Light Elective Adventure! Scouts can schedule a special field trip to a local park or Scientific and Natural Area nearby to complete the following requirements:
1. Watch for birds in your yard, neighborhood, or town for one week. Identify the birds you see, and write down where and when you saw them.
2. Learn about the bird flyways closest to your home. Find out which birds use these flyways.
3. Watch at least four wild creatures (reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, fish, insects, or mammals) in the wild. Describe the kind of place (forest, field, marsh, yard, or park) where you saw them. Tell what they were doing.
4. Give examples of at least two of the following:
a. A producer, a consumer, and a decomposer in the food chain of an ecosystem
b. One way humans have changed the balance of nature
c. How you can help protect the balance of nature
5. Learn about aquatic ecosystems and wetlands in your area. Talk with your Webelos den leader or family about the important role aquatic ecosystems and wetlands play in supporting life cycles of wildlife and humans, and list three ways you can help.
6. Visit a museum of natural history, a nature center, or a zoo with your family, Webelos den, or pack. Tell what you saw.
Cost: $60/2 hour program for up to 10 scouts; $6 each additional scout.
The location will be determined by the instructor and Den Leader for the best possible experience for all.
