In the Bear Den, there are four general achievement groups: God, Country, Family, and Self. This is the year your scout will grow in amazing ways. The Bear program relies heavily on family involvement, but you will see this gradually change with the scout doing more with his/her den and more individual direction as he/she graduates to Webelos.
