Our pack, in Vallejo, CA tried to do this last year. The problem we
ran into was that the cub master's son was receiving the Arrow of
Light that year and some people cried favorite. Not so, but we went
along. Were trying it again this year and already have heard some
complaints. Not from the Den leaders, but from parents. We're going
to stick to our guns this year. I'll let you know how it turns out.
