How does my Scout earn the Academic and Sports belt loops/pins?
Your Scouts den leader may present opportunities through out the year for the boys to earn belt loops. The Pack also sponsors during its April Pack meeting a Loopapalooza; where the Scouts can earn up to 3 belt loops at this event. Also, there are some instances in which the Scouts can earn a belt loop from activities outside of Scouting that they are participating in or at home with Akela. If your Scout will be completing the requirements for any belt loop at home or in an outside activity please coordinate this with you den leader. Pins are offered to scouts who have earned their belt-loop and met the requirements for the pin. The pin requirements beyond the belt-loop can be earned outside pack/den meetings.
