This evening Brandt received his Arrow of Light, the crowning achievement in cub scouts. He actually finished up cub scouts in July, when he turned eleven, and he had finished all the requirements well before his birthday, but it was summer, and schedules were off, and leaders were unavailable, so the awards ceremony was put off for a bit. Brandt has had great scout leaders, and the Webelos leaders, Peter Madsen and Andrew Smith, have both been exceptional, really working each week to insure that the activities were meaningful and accomplishing something. Brandt enjoyed going each week. It was fun to have him work up to this award, and he came home with his very own arrow!

Brother Wade Davis gave an explanation of what each ray of the sun meant on the Arrow of Light patch, and the cubs held up those signs.
Aren't they cute?
Brandt's best buddy Paul got his Arrow of Light, too.
Kent, in his capacity as the eleven year old scout leader, welcomed Brandt and Paul into boy scouts,
and then had them cross the "bridge," moving from little scouts to big scouts.
And then we gave them a cheer.
