Arrow of Light - Fifth Grade
EARNING THE ARROW OF LIGHT (AOL) RANK

All Cub Scouts, except for those boys or girls who join Cub Scouting for the first time in fifth grade, must earn their Webelos rank prior to earning Arrow of Light. The requirements for Webelos and Arrow of Light may be worked on at the same time but the tenure requirements for each must be met and the awards must be earned and presented sequentially.
