Leader Recognition Awards

Scott Pyle was in charge of Leader Recognition Awards. He does a great job with this every year and always brings lots of laughs.

For our Wolf Den Leader: A trip for he and his wife to "The Ritz" (Ritz Crackers).

For our Bear Den Leader: A trip for he and his wife to "5th Avenue".

Our Webelos I Den Leader is such a SWEETie handling all of the TARTS in her den.

We gave our other Webelos I Den Leader a bonus of "100 Grand."

Our Cubmaster is new to the pack. So he got his very first "Payday".

Our gift to our Webelos II Den Leader is usually a bit more serious. He's leaving our pack and that makes us sad. He was presented with a framed picture so he would never forget us.

Webelos Super Achiever

Joshua has earned his Webelos Super Achiever Award. He earned all 20 of the Webelos Activity Badges. This is quite a feat as he's only the 2nd in the pack to ever earn the award.

Cake Auction

This year we held our first ever cake auction at our Blue and Gold banquet. The boys donated cakes they decorated to sell to the highest bidder. It was a huge success and such a riot! There were some crazy bidding wars and one cake went for $50!

"SOLD! To the gentleman in the back!"

We will definitely be doing this again next year.

Blue and Gold - Bridging Over

When a Cub Scout bridges over into Boy Scouts it's a pretty big deal.



First the Webelos Den Leader and the Cubmaster take off the boys' Cub Scout epaulets, neckerchief, and slide.



Then the Scoutmaster calls for each boy from the other side of the bridge. Two Boy Scouts greet him and put on his Boy Scout epaulets, neckerchief, and slide.



Then once all the new scouts have crossed over, the whole troop walks by welcoming the boys in.



And they are officially Boy Scouts.

Blue and Gold - Arrow of Light Ceremony

The Arrow of Light award is the highest award available to Cub Scouts. It requires the Scout to have earned the Webelos Scout badge and eight activity badges. In addition to the skill and activity requirements of the preceding ranks, the Arrow of Light requires Scouts to learn the Scout Promise and Scout Law, and visit one meeting and one activity of a Boy Scout troop, in preparation for advancing to the Boy Scouts. Earning the Arrow of Light will help earn many of the requirements for the lower ranks of the Boy Scouts. The Arrow of Light award is the only Cub Scout award that can be worn on a Boy Scout uniform.
