While the Cubs can earn Belt-Loops and Pins, the adult volunteers also have an opportunity to earn awards as well. In Scouting, these are called “Knots”. The link below is a great resource that will show you what they look like, what you have to do to earn them and what they signify. Please note, these are a challenge to earn and if you meet an adult Scouter who has a chest full of them they are most likely a very dedicated volunteer who has spent years in service to the BSA.
