Carson's District Awards Banquet

Well, I missed my Scouting District's award banquet this year, so I thought maybe I could offer my collection to Carson's recognition dinner.  Phil, the Stake Young Men's 2nd Counselor absolutely wanted to have me come.  I set up 3 1/2 tables, plus two bookcase displays.  A number of people enjoyed the collection.  They even fed us.  Jen came and helped take down the displays and enjoyed a great dinner.  Carson wasn't feeling really good and decided not to go camping with the troop to Bountiful Pond. 

Flags really add to the tables.

Someone enlightened me about Cedar Badge.  Cedar Badge is the name the Idaho council gives to their NYLT camp, which is conducted 2-3 times a year for each level of Scouting: Scouts, Varsity, Ventures.  I bought this flag in Pocatello last year, thus Cedar Badge.  I'm not sure why this flag ended up for sell, as Cedar Badge is still being conducted for Varsity Scouts.

They had more than enough food and space.  Too often, Scouters don't show up for this dinner and miss out on a good time and good food.  And it's FREE!!!!

I was honored to be asked to display some of my Scouting memorabilia at a Court of Honor for 13 Eagle Scouts in Liberty Utah.  It was a pretty impressive affair.


10 Eagles present, 2 a couple months ago, 1 on vacation!

The entire gymnasium was full.

I love my new table-top uniform mannequins!
