Build My Own Hero
Building your own hero allows you to discover what being “hero” means to you and your life, as well as to the community you live in. Within the adventure, you will be able to locate and recognize people in the community (and across the world!) who act as local heroes in their everyday life, and create your own superhero and story of how they help others.
Rationale for Adventure
Help the Webelos Scout understand that heroes come in many shapes and forms and that each of us has a different idea what makes up a hero.
