Tonight was the first Boy Scout Court of Honor R has attended with Troop 22. I didn't grab the camera, so I don't have any photos, unfortunately.
This morning, as we got ready for school, R exhibited strong signs of a sore throat and a very stuffy nose. We discussed the likelihood of missing school. In the context of figuring out how serious it was, I said, kindly, "No school today, no Court of Honor tonight" R responded with "I can definitely go to school." I definitely don't think he's faking a stuffy head or a sore throat. But I think its telling how badly he wants to participate in Scouts.
At the Court of Honor, all first year scouts were assigned to their patrols. R is now a member of the Shark Patrol
R received the following awards and distinctions for his uniform:
- SCOUT rank
- 2007 QUALITY TROOP patch
- 80 year troop bar
- Bulwinkle's Scout Night 2008 patch
- Shark Patrol Badge
I was approached about 'suiting up' as an assistant Scoutmaster for Fall 2008. I'm open to the idea, but haven't consulted with C yet.
