Dillon's Wolf Awards!

Dillon worked extremely hard over winter break to get his Wolf completed for scouts.  Grandma Peggy, Daddy and I were right alongside him figuring out what exactly he needed to do and how to make it happen.  All his hard work paid off and he got it done!

 The end of January he received all of his belt loop awards but they had forgotten the paint for his "Ceremony" to complete the rank so they had us wait to do the official wolf badge until the next month.


This is in February now, they got to perform a skit, Dillon had a great time throwing popcorn at the audience! He giggled about it up front for quite a while!

Moving on up!  He was awarded his actual wolf badge at the Blue and Gold Banquet.  They do a whole ceremony where the parent paints on their face.  Each color and symbol means something different.
Blue is happiness from his days as a bobcat.
Red is for bravery when he becomes a bear.
Yellow is for sunlight along the wolf trail.
Purple is for pride in his accomplishments.

He made the decision to work hard to get his wolf done at the very end.  He did it without complaint (mostly) and reaped the rewards.  He was so excited and is well on his way to completing his bear requirements!
