The BIG award for the night.....his Bear!! |
Before he can actually receive his Bear he had to wrestle a Bear. That's what the tent is for. The Bear in this case is Dad and Eli has to come out victorious! It's such a fun tradition! The boys love it and it's a right of passage for them. However, I think the Bear is getting a little old for wrestling on the hard gym floor and has a pretty sore knee from it today! LOL!
Since Cub Scouts relies heavily on parent involvement (a.k.a. mom), the boys put a special pin around their mother's neck as a symbol of gratitude and a keepsake. :)
We are so proud of you buddy! We know it takes hard work and dedication to get through each rank advancement! Congratulations!!! :)
