Share the Glory, Show your Pride

In two more weeks, 2010 will come to an end. It is a good time to look back and recap what we have achieved in a year, and I am very happy to share with you the good news that Pack 1776 has once again earned the National Summertime Pack Award and Centennial Quality Unit Award. This marked the fourth consecutive year of the Pack of receiving both of these awards!

I would like to congratulate Cubmaster Emeritus Ed and Committee Chair Emeritus Scott on this remarkable achievement and thank them for their tireless leadership and endless contribution to Scouting.

I would also like to express my gratitude to all the volunteers, parents and Scouts for their commitment and support throughout the years, even when we sometimes appeared disorganized and needed help at the last minute. Without any of you, we would not be where we are and achieved what we have.

To celebrate this monumental accomplishment, every Scout and registered leader of 2009-2010 is entitled to receiving the award patch depicted above. Submit a patch request to your den leader and show your pride by wearing it on the right sleeve of your class A uniform below the den numeral.

When we come back next year, there will be a completely new unit recognition program from BSA.  Are you ready for the new challenges?  Stay tuned.
