Other Scout stuff over the past few months…

We had Court of Honor in January and Maxwell was awarded several merit badges and rank advancement up to Star.

March campout – unfortunately Spencer had a baseball tournament in Tuscaloosa so wasn’t able to attend but Maxwell was able to get there a little late after his baseball game. Spring sports and scouts don’t mix!

Finally, I led the Snow Sports merit badge for these boys that are going skiing on spring break. Good times!

Scouting is fun!

Scouts

March 20, 2024

I’ve been a busy Troop Committee Chair up at Troop 63 these past few months…but it’s all paying off! I worked really hard to recruit some great new scouts into the Troop for Spencer’s grade. I hosted a “mom’s night” at the house back in the fall…

and then we had a “Fire, Fun and Football” event at the scout hut in January…

Grandfriends

March 19, 2024

We had a great Grandfriends event up at school recently! It was a yucky day but luckily the rain held off for a bit that morning. Samantha and Spencer had the best Grandfriends that got to visit their classrooms and explore the school with them!

Lulu even got a little excitement in 3rd grade!

Crossover Ceremony

March 14, 2024

Two weeks ago Spencer and his Cub Scout troop had their crossover ceremony officially earning their Arrow of Light and becoming Boy Scouts! There was a good group of them that stuck it out and made it through Cub Scouts together. This group wasn’t quite as committed and connected as Maxwell’s group so it wasn’t quite as bittersweet. But, it’s still a great accomplishment and I’m so proud of Spencer and all of these boys!
