Shane joined cub scouts this year as a Tiger Cub. Each month there is a pack meeting where they receive all of the awards that they have earned that month. Because Papa was a scout master for nine years and Rob and Tim are both Eagle Scouts, we invited them to Shane's first pack meeting. Shane received patches for helping to clean up Christ's Haven and participating in a flag ceremony. He was so embarrassed to have to stand in front of the group to get his patches.
He also received his Bobcat rank. For this award, Steve had to pin the patch on upside down. Once he does a good turn, he can turn it right side up. Tradition WAS that the boy was turned upside down and the patch was pinned on as normal. This is no longer allowed as it is considered "hazing". Well, I wanted pictures of Daddy holding Shane upside down, so after the meeting, we took Shane out on the porch and let Steve put it on while Papa held him. They were all giggling so much, it was fun to watch.
