Religious Emblems & Awards for Jewish Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Explorers and Adults
The National Jewish Committee on Scouting has designed special emblems to be awarded to Jewish Scouts who learn more about Judaism. You may start working on one as soon as you have joined Scouting. In December, 1995, a change in age requirements was announced for the Maccabee Emblem. It may now be earned by Tiger Cubs, Wolf Cubs, and Bear Cubs. Bear Cubs and Webelos Scouts may earn the Aleph emblem. For more information, click on any picture below:
