We awarded the boys their Progress Toward Rank badges and beads tonight! The goal is that each Scout will earn his Bear Rank by the end of January so that he can receive his Bear patch at the Blue and Gold Banquet in February! There is still plenty of time to complete the required 12 Achievements! Don't panic (yet)!
Remember, we completed Achievement 5, Sharing Your World With Wildlife, in its entirety by completing requirements 5a, 5b, 5c and 5e. So if your Scout met Myrtle the Turtle, he has completed Achievement 5. We also completed requirements 16b, and 16c at a Den Meeting. By completing 16a (which is simply practicing some exercises) your Scout can complete Achievement 16. In addition, we completed requirements 3f, 7a, 7b, and 7f in Den Meetings. The rest of those Achievements are easy to complete at home!
Your job as Akela is to sign off on each requirement and then once your Scout has finished an Achievement in its entirety to sign off again on the entire Achievement (this is the yellowish colored box with Cub Scout Leader Baloo next to it). Still have questions? Call or e-mail Tim or Harlan or Jennifer!
