All Tiger Cubs, Wolf and Bear Cub

It is a patch worn on the uniform shirt right pocket flap (the
first time in Cub Scouting history that a pocket flap patch has been
authorized). Boys may earn the
award in each rank year, adding a wolf footprint pin to the flap patch
each successive time the award is earned. The Outdoor Activity Award was
launched in late August 2004.

Cub Scout Emergency Preparedness Award
Emergency management, emergency
preparedness, and disaster services are common throughout the United
States—we take care of each other. By whatever name, these activities
encompass mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery related to any
kind of disaster, whether natural, technological, or national security.
Emergency preparedness means being prepared for all kinds of
emergencies, able to respond in time of crisis to save lives and property,
and to help a community—or even a nation—return to normal life after a
disaster occurs.
It is a challenge to be prepared for
emergencies in our world of man-made and natural phenomena. The Emergency
Preparedness BSA program is planned to inspire the desire and foster the
skills to meet this challenge in our youth and adult members so that they
can participate effectively in this crucial service to their families,
communities, and nation.
