Almost a year



That is how long it took Michael to complete the requirements for his Wolf Scout award. Michael was thrilled to get an award at pack meeting. He got his Bobcat award back in August and then started working on the Wolf. But once he got the Wolf, that also opened up his ability to get arrow points. So in addition to the Wolf, he got his gold and 3 silver arrow points. He was thrilled! This was the best shot I could get. Michael was so excited he was bobbing all around. So, we'll call the cut off top of his head artistic.

Scouts has been a very positive experience for Michael. He has gotten to interact with the neighborhood boys on a weekly basis. He has a reputation for being a cracker-jack Pinewood Derby builder (he really does a lot of the work on his car...sawing, sanding, painting...) and he has worked very hard on getting his rank advancements. We are very proud of him. He is telling everyone he is going to get his Weebelo now. Well...first he'll do his Bear, but it is good to have goals!
