Eddies Boy Scout Crossover

Each of the families brings a dessert to share. The theme of the ceremony was The Great Outdoors. This is the cake that I made for the theme.








Eddie crossed over into Boy Scouts last night at his Blue and Gold Banquet. He was very excited about this next step in Boy Scouts. He was one of three boys who chose to go the next step.

He got to carry the American Flag in the opening flag ceremony.





Here, Ed and I are removing his Cub Scout neckerchief and the colors on his shoulders before crossing over the bridge.








This is the bridge that he crossed over. A tradition is for each boy who crosses over to put their name on the bridge somehow. Eddie did a leathercraft circle with his name on it. It is hanging on the "down ramp" on the right side of the bridge.





After he crossed over the bridge, Boy Scouts from his new troop put new shoulder colors on and a new neckerchief and then he shakes hands with the boys and the leaders. The person shaking Eddies hand is his new Cubmaster. The other two men are his other leaders.

He is very excited about beginning this new experience. His first meeting is tomorrow night and he is going camping in a few weeks with them.
