when does a cub scout become a boy scout
Lone Scouting provides a way for boys 8 to 10 years old to be Cub Scouts and those 11 to 17 to be Boy Scouts, with the help and guidance of an adult Lone Scout friend and counselor, usually a parent. The BSA has an estimated 400 Lone Scouts, including a few in other countries, Fruehan says.
