The culminating event every year for cub scouts is the Blue and Gold banquet. This year our banquet turned into a weekend full of events --- thanks to the wonderful folks from our pack who planned the event. When no one else volunteered to do the work my friend Robin and I agreed to take on the task. That's why it turned out extra special -- WE were in charge.
JD started on Saturday morning at a police training facility working on his Readyman badge. I don't really understand the significance of Mount Medearis --- but here is JD standing on it.
The festivities included camping. Every little boy's favorite camping event is the poking of the fire.
JD and Robin prepared to serve BBQ to the hungry masses.
This didn't turn out to be the best picture but the program started at sunset with this group of boy scouts doing an indian ceremony for each of the rank levels as the boys got their awards.
JD earned his Webelos badge.
He had his face painted in honor of his award.
Our campsite was part of Camp Mabry. The bathrooms just had rows of toilets in them. George said this is what military bathrooms look like. Hmmmm, not sure how I feel about this - BUT - since I went home to my own private bathroom on Sunday morning I'll just show you the picture and let you draw your own conclusion about it.
