Kam's Blue and Gold Ceremony and Pinewood Derby Races!

Kam's Big Day for Scouting. Sat. Feb. 27th Kam's Pack 100 with scouting had there Blue and Gold Ceremony, this is where they celebrate being scouts and all major awards are given. Following Blue and Gold was the Pinewood Derby Races. This is where you carve your own car out of a block of wood and paint it to whatever you chose. This was a very long day for everyone, the day started at 2:30 and we did not get back home till after 9pm. But Kam says it was well worth it. Every year at Blue and Gold they have a different desert Cooking Contest, This year, being the 100th year of scouting, the theme was Father/son cook off, or Akela/Scout Cook off.

Akela means, Any adult that leads a scout, We had to sign Kams book as his Akela along with Ms. Tina, his Scout Leader.

This was a very big day for Kam. Kam received some of the best honors a Wolf Scout could get!
