Grey Wolf Criteria and Process
Advice as at March 2020 – in transition from “old system” to “new youth program”. Updated email advice July 2020
Whilst Social Distancing applies – check the post Peak Awards during COVID-19 period
o Grey Wolf age range
- A youth member can attain the peak award in their section if they fulfil all criteria
- And are aged within the age criteria for their section – currently from age 8 until they turn 12
- And are a current member of that section – ie they have not “Gone Up” to Scouts.
o “Old Program” applicants -
- Fill out Grey Wolf Application from Scouts NSW Website / State Forms – form F6 - https://www.nsw.scouts.com.au/members-services/state-forms/
- Commencement Form no longer in use, not required
- Pack Council/Unit Council to approve the application for award – enter the name of one or two members of the Unit Council that considered and approved the award
- Form to be typed into, they will not accept handwritten
- Email to address on the form – PeakAwards@nsw.scouts.com.au – please cc Region Commissioner Cub Scouts jan.mulheron@nsw.scouts.com.au
- Once approved the cub will receive an email – using email address on Scoutlink, make sure it is current
- I believe the Cub Leader will also receive an email
- Cub Leader will receive certificate/badge/woggle ready for presentation – Cub Leader and Cub to work out details of presentation.
- Grey Wolf Woggle will be phased out – when the current supply runs out there will be no more woggles. They have been a special thing NSW has been presenting, not standard across the National Award Scheme.
o “New Program” applications – please check your application process
Fee no longer attached to this award, no need for payment
