A Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Girl Scout, Girl Guide, Explorer, etc. Within the context of Pack 527, it's a Cub Scout or Webelos Scout.

Scout is the first award earned by a Scout in the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). It is properly not a rank, but the 'joining requirement', and Tenderfoot is the first proper rank. The Scout badge has a brown fleur-de-lis on a tan background.
