Scouting Saturday: My New Bear

Okay, so this actually happened at the end of November, but I'm just slow.

Three of the boys in our Bear den -- Joshua, Charlie, and Thomas -- were awarded their Bear badge.  I got lousy pictures, sorry...

Thomas has been steadily plugging away at the Bear requirements, which has included things like:

• Ways we worship
• What makes America special
• Take care of your planet
• Law enforcement is a big job
• What's cooking?
• Family fun
• Be ready
• Family Outdoor Adventures
• Saving Well, Spending Well
• Ride Right
• Sawdust and nails
• Build a model
• Be a leader

Isn't that a great list?  Wow... I'm reminded again of how much I love the Bear rank.

At the same time, Thomas also received a couple arrow points for completing electives.  Those are some pretty cool activities too.  Here's another lousy picture of that:

I'm very proud of all your hard work, buddy.
