For a Cub Scout, the Blue and Gold Banquet is the time of the year you look forward to the most. It's the time of the year when you receive the rank that you've worked on earning since September.
Our youngest son Connor, earned his Tiger rank this time, the first rank for a Cub Scout.
It was quite a proud moment!!
Briar, our oldest, has been in scouts now for 5 years. He not only earned his Arrow of Light Award and Webelos 2 rank, (pictured below).....
but he also crossed over to his new Boy Scout Troop..
(That's him on the far right. =] )
What made the evening even more special was that both sets of their grandparents were able to come and celebrate their achievement.
That is great - our family is involved in scouting. Our son just earned his Bear rank. I was a scout too. I was glad to read that both grandparents made it. We know how important that can be - thankfully our sons grandparents made it for his banquet. We are with Pack 20 out of Belton, SC - part of the Blue Ridge Council. I am his den leader, day camp director and commisioner. Like I said we are involved in scouting!
Keep up the great work
