Rain Gutter Regatta and Super 20!

Shane came in 2nd place this year-he has placed every.single.year he has raced.  I had no words of sportsmanship this year, "Come home a winner, or don't come home at all."  (just kidding) Ian came in 5th, which is still great considering how huge our pack is.  Ian's greatest accomplishment was receiving his Super Achiever award:
For a Webelos Scout to earn his Arrow of Light at the end of two years, he must complete a list of requirements that includes earning 8 activity badges out of the 20 available.  Ian earned all 20!  He and his buddy were the first in their dens to finish.  I am so so proud of the work Ian puts into his scouting and how hard he works to internalize scouting values.  (and I hate the way the world reveals itself to him on a daily basis, showing that keeping those scouting values will be a daily struggle for the rest of his life)
