Diego has earned the Highest Award in Cub Scouts





I took Diego to his Cub Scout meeting tonight at the local Fire Station to complete the Readyman Pin.  this particular pin is designed to teach the boys first aid, "knowledge" of CPR, and other life saving skills.  Diego actually volunteered to play the part of victim as the EMT's pretended he had just fallen out of a tree (something that wouldn't actually surprise me if it happens one day).

I am very proud of Diego.  The Cub Scout program begins when boys are in the first grade as "Tiger Cubs" they then advance along the path until they are in the 5th grade as Webelo II Cubs.  They transfer to Boy Scouts after they turn 11, graduate 5th grade, or earn the "Arrow of Light" award, which is the highest award you can earn as a Cub Scout.  I am very proud as Diego has now achieved all of the requirements to receive this prestigious award.  He will officially cross over to Boy Scouts next month.
