A Right of Passage

Over the last couple of weeks, we wound down the Scouting year.

First it was the annual Pinewood Derby.

In what can only be called an actual miracle, the Huntington-Katis boys placed first and second! By the expressions on their faces, you can guess who bested whom.

The Derby was followed a few days later with our last Cub Scout meeting for the year.  Niko was promoted to Wolf.

For Gus, however, this was actually the last Cub meeting ever. He earned his Arrow of Light and was promoted to the Boy Scouts - an accomplishment about which he's particularly proud.

His new group of hoodlums!
