Laurie 10 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I received an e-mail from my DE that I am one of three Cub Scout leaders who is being recognized "for making significant contributions to Cub Scouting" per our phone call follow up. What an honor this is, and what a surprise! There are corporate sponsors who are sending three units, one of them the pack I serve, to the Kimmel Center. Tickets are provided for each registered leader and Cub in the unit. This is so exciting to me. Nice things like this are special and don't happen a whole lot, so I wanted to share. I hope you don't think I'm bragging, for the reality is that I can't think of what I could have contributed. I simply love doing what I do...most days Thanks for letting me share my happy news!

NJCubScouter 1389 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Congratulations Laurie! And how about those corporate sponsors, who are recognizing your contribution by doing something special for the boys in your unit. That's a great idea! Link to post Share on other sites

Laurie 10 Posted March 15, 2004 Author Share Posted March 15, 2004 Thank you all! NJ, I don't know yet who the corporate sponsors are, but I certainly hope to learn that. A thank you note from the unit is very much in order, and unless it's one of those corporations that prefers to donate something quietly, I'll post a very public thank you too. This is generous indeed. Link to post Share on other sites
scoutingagain 20 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Like I've noted before, if it's true it's not braggin'. Sounds like some folks familiar with your efforts think you deserve the recognition. Congratulations! Link to post Share on other sites
Eamonn 61 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Laurie, As you know I think very highly of you as a really nice person and as someone who is doing a great job for our kids. So far I haven't been able to entice you to join our District. Heck all you have to do is move and find new employment and new schools - It's not like I'm asking a lot!! I am overjoyed that you have been selected. My hope is that it is a really memorable evening and that you have someone take photos so that you can treasure it for a long time. I also have some good news I just found out that I will be presented with the International Scouter Award on Thursday at our recognition dinner. I think that I'm the first one ever in our Council. Eamonn. PS I hope they play the 1812 overture. Link to post Share on other sites
Laurie 10 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Share Posted March 16, 2004 Thanks again. Your sharing in my happy news just makes it nicer and nicer Eamonn, congratulations!! That is wonderful news, and from your posts and e-mails off the list, and from all that you have shared, I can't help but think you are very deserving of a special recognition. Who wonderful for you! By the way, I'm a real shutterbug, so I'm sure to have photos--and I'll pass the camera to someone else so I can get in them too Link to post Share on other sites
SR540Beaver 116 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Well I didn't win anything, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express and I did save a bundle by switching my car insurance to Geico. Congrats to both of you! Keep up the good work! Link to post Share on other sites
