cheffy 10 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 My youngest sons Eagle ceremony was yesterday. what a day! Even though there are several Troops in town it's still a big deal. The Mayor still shows up and actually knows many of the boys from their projects. The ceremony was some of the usual pomp but then our Commish read"it's only a pin" which my son picked out. Not a dry eye in the place including the Commish. Then the new Eagle said a few words and shocked me by saying of all the things he has done that Scouting was one of the best. Just my proud day that I needed to share with those who would appreciate it. Thanks BTW The Troop had 4 Eagles this year and probably that many next and no we are not pushing them through, they are motivated. Link to post Share on other sites

packsaddle 753 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Same here. Tell him 'congratulations' for me too. You have reason to be proud. On a side note: Are you guys still eating as well as you described in the past? For some reason, life for me revolves more and more around food. Link to post Share on other sites
