Scouting Awards

October 27th, 2011

Gabe became a cub scout in May, but of course, that's when all chaos broke loose for our family as we scrambled to find a new home, move, remodel the old house, rent it out, have a baby, and on and on…
Well, the poor guy has been waiting so patiently for me to help him finish his bobcat,
and Matt and I have both gotten multiple 'lectures' from his new wolf leaders.
(They seem convinced we're totally incompetent, never mind the fact that Gabe has an older brother who's earned everything successfully, or that I've been a Wolf, Bear and Webelos Den leader before. Sigh.)
So, I finally made time to finish up the last requirement, called the den leaders to tell them a week before the pack meeting and then the Cub Master forgot to buy a WHOLE bunch of awards - including Gabe's. We're hoping this means Matt will be in town for the next pack meeting and can see him receive it.
So, this is Gabe getting his soccer belt loop. Way to go, buddy - you're a trooper!
In addition to helping Gabe, we also helped Zach finish up his Webelos Badge requirements. Being the HAM that he is, Zach marched to front of the pack meeting and dropped to one knee as though he was being knighted. What a nut! Now on to the Arrow of Light...
