Brigham's Bobcat Ceremony

Tonight was a the monthly pack meeting for the cub scouts but it was special for us because it was Brigham's first time going and it was also his Bobcat ceremony. But first Levi's wolf den was asked to do a skit. Here he is with his den doing the 12 days of Halloween. After the skit, our scout master (the man on the right) gave out awards and such. Levi was one of the few boys that got belt decor to recognize what he did this summer at camp. He seemed proud...and maybe a little embarrassed.
Then came the main event: the Bobcat ceremony. A wizard was brought in to entertain the boys. He did a really good job of tying in Halloween and the ceremony. He put "potions" into the cauldron, each representing values of the scout program such as reverence and obedience. You know, sometimes the meetings and outings can really get to be to much when you have so much going on in life but when you hear things like this, the same things that are taught in church, I can't help but be so grateful for the boys being apart of the Cub Scouts organization.
After the potions were mixed together, the boys partook!
