As an Eagle Scout, who was also a Cub Scout, Arrow of light recipient, and Order of the Arrow member; I would like to join in those congratulating this boy for his achievement.

Crazed in FL if you know this kid pass on my congratulations, as well as a word of encouragement to strive for the rank of Eagle Scout. If not to much to ask please pass on my thanks to that Sheriff’s Deputy for being so devoted to these boys and the program.

I was there when this kid and his troop-mates got their Arrow of Light awards. The leader was a county sheriff’s deputy and the guy was totally over the top when it came to scouting. Each kid got an arrow like the one above, it was made by a genuine Native American in Arizona (I think?) and was made of real feathers and whatever stone was traditional to make such a thing. Must have cost the guy a fortune to give one to each of his troop… then again, maybe that’s where all the popcorn sale money went…

Arrow of Light is the highest award that a Cub Scout (at Webleos rank) can earn. Order of the Arrow is a service organization that one is voted into by other Scouts in your Boy Scout Troop, normally in the 2nd-3rd year of Boy Scouts (not Cub Scouts).
Also note all the Silver Arrow Points under his shirt pocket … this kid is a serious Cubbie! ~Way to go~

I’ve earned both the Arrow of Light in cubs, Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts AND been in the Order of the Arrow. Believe me, I had seen COUNTLESS Bands of Awkward families along that trail. I’d say 75-90% of all scouting families would highly qualify for this site.
I had some great times growing up as a scout and witnessed some priceless Awkward moments to go along with it. BTW, Order of the Arrow is some off shoot “service” association of Boy Scouts and not an official rank.

The best things in this photo are the DVD Rack, not one, but TWO Car Window Flags on the Fire Place, and dad’s SMUG look on his face.
