Third graders work toward the Bear rank. The Bear rank is earned by completing seven adventures as described below.
Complete each of the six required adventures:
Baloo the Builder
Bear Claws
Bear Necessities
Fellowship and Duty to God
Fur, Feathers, and Ferns
Paws for Action (Duty to Country)
In addition to the six required adventures, complete at least one elective adventure of your den’s or family’s choosing.
With your parent, guardian, or other caring adult, complete the exercises in the pamphlet entitled How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent’s Guide.
Earn the Cyber Chip award for your age. (The Cyber Chip portion of this requirement may be waived by your parent or guardian if you do not have access to the internet.)
Once a Bear has completed all required adventures, a crossing over ceremony will be held at the end of the year where they will pass over to the next rank, Webelos.
