Billy received his Arrow of Light this past week.

| Waiting for the ceremony to begin. |
 |
| And still waiting. |
 |
| It got pretty chilly. |
 |
| Some didn’t mind waiting so much. |
 |
| She certainly didn’t. |

Almost 15 and almost 6. |

The Boy Scouts helped with the ceremony.

The fire made the waiting in the freezing cold bearable.
But they had to move when it was time for the ceremony. |
 |
| The Boy Scouts led the blindfolded Webelos over. |

Awaiting their Arrow of Light.
The ceremony was very solemn. |

 |
| Proud mama. |
 |
| Happy Scout. |
 |
| The den and leaders. |
They told us to come early, and then they started late. The ceremony was about 10 minutes long. But it was worth it.
In 2 weeks, I will have 2 Boy Scouts and 0 Cub Scouts. In the fall, we start the Cub Scout journey all over again with Peter.
Many thanks to my sister for taking the pictures.

I'm a really cranky waiter. 🙂
But congratulations to your new little boy scout!
Congrats to your son on the Arrow of Light — the highest honor in Cub Scouts. Remember he can wear that award on his Boy Scout uniform.
Waiting is never easy — but glad it went well.
Congratulations! The Arrow of Light is a BIG deal. You have good reason to be proud.
Wishing him luck on his Scouting trail–all the way to Eagle.
