Crossing Over

Today was Delaney's last day as a Cub Scout. The annual Blue and Gold banquet was tonight and it's when the second year Webelos cross over from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. There's a ceremony, a little silly at times, but still pretty cool for the boys. They go onstage, there's a guy dressed like an old time trapper (JC Bear) and he talks them through some inspirational things. There was an Eagle Scout there as well and hopefully is inspired the boys to continue on.

Delaney got pulled onstage and represented the den, being asked some question, and then it was his neckerchief that got lit on fire in the ceremony. Pretty cool and we have lots of pictures and some video I need to post.

It was long, but a good ceremony, and no break. Tuesday night is the first Boy Scout meeting for us.
