Webelos 2 / Arrow of Light
Webelos 2/Arrow of Light is for scouts who are in 5th Grade (Ages 10-11)
Webelos is a program for 4th and 5th graders to prepare to join a Boy Scout troop while learning outdoor skills and participating in 5 adventures and 1 elective adventure. A well-run group of Webelos is a gradual change from being an 'adult-run' den to being a 'scout-run' patrol ready to fit right into an adventurous scouting troop.
Required Adventures
Arrow of Light is earned by, being active in your Webelos den for at least six months since completing the fourth grade or for at least six months since becoming 10 years old and completing these four required adventures and at least one elective adventure.
Along with completing the exercises in the pamphlet:

Elective Adventures
Lion Scouts may also complete any number of the following elective adventures.
On the advancement trail, a Cub Scout progresses towards a badge of rank based on their grade. They need not have earned the previous rank in order to earn the next. Each of the ranks in Cub Scouting has its own requirements that are age appropriate, so earning a rank below a Cub Scout’s current grade is not permitted. As a Cub Scout advances through the ranks, the requirements get more challenging, to match the new skills and abilities they have learned.
