Script:
Akela: The spirit of Cub Scouting burns here as it does in the hearts of Cub Scouts everywhere. The Cub Scout spirit is like a campfire. We must add wood to the fire or it will go out. In the same manner, we must add new scouts to our pack, or the Cub Scout spirit will go out.
Baloo: We have (number) scouts who have earned the right to join our Pack.
Akela: Are they ready to join in the Cub Scout spirit?
Baloo: Yes, and they have learned the ways of our tribe. They have learned the Scout Promise, the Scout Law, and the Cub Scout Motto and their meanings. They have also learned the meaning and proper use of the Cub Scout Sign, Salute, and Handshake.
These are the scouts ready to join our Pack. When I call your name, come forward with your parents ...
(Baloo calls the scouts who are to receive the Bobcat badge.)
(Both Akela and Baloo hand the badge to parents and congratulate the Cubs with the Cub Scout handshake)
Akela: Parents, present the Bobcat badge to your child. The parent pin reminds you that Scouting is a family program.
Akela: Will the new Bobcats join Baloo and me in saying the Scout Promise?
All: On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my Country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.
