Evan worked hard in Webelos and managed to complete every badge just before he earned his Arrow of Light award - the highest award in Cub Scouts and one you get to wear on your Boy Scout uniform. He did it all in about 6 months which was extra impressive.
They didn't have the normal person for the awards, and I guess they got word out late that he would be receiving his award, but they put together a presentation he loved. He was also awarded the super scouter award that night for finishing it all so fast.
After his Arrow of Light ceremony they did his crossing over into Boy Scouts, which surprised us. He was only 10.5 and not supposed to start the next phase til he was 11. Turns out he met the qualifications for some exceptions and he has now joined 11 year old scouts as a 10 year old. Hopefully his enthusiasm keeps up and he meets his goal of his eagle at age 14.
