Timberwolfs

For scouts 8-10 years old

As the scouts get older, they work on gaining more independence. The Timberwolf program is focused on hands-on outdoor skills, meaningful community service, and the strengthening of the Pack. There is a lore and magic to the Timberwolf program based on The Jungle Book as written by Robert Baden-Powell‘s friend, Rudyard Kipling. Just as the “man-cub”, Mowgli, is taught the laws of the jungle by its animal inhabitants, the Timberwolves will learn to be good members of the community through games and activities.

Eventually, the Timberwolves will grow as people and scouts into a Pathfinder.

Uniforms

The Timberwolf uniform is a grey T-shirt with short or long sleeves. Badges are sewn onto the front and sleeves of the shirt. This means that scout uniforms are clothes, meant to be worn and washed.

Getting outside, hiking, camping, and playing are dirty work, so OSG uniforms are practical and affordable.
