Quinn is officially a cub

Quinn is now officially a cub.

He was chosen as one of only 2 of the new cub intake who already knew their Cub Law and Cub Promise, and so he was scheduled to have his investiture on Friday.

He got his new uniform on Thursday, and we only tried it on just before we had to go to cubs on Friday - what can I say, it's been a busy week! We found that everything was rather large! Oh well...

Arriving at cubs

The cubs had an end of term party and played some fun games, and then it was time to invest the new boys. Quinn went first. He had to recite his Cub Law, which he did beautifully, and then answer a few questions, and then he had to repeat the Cub Promise as the scouter was saying it. Also he got to do the salute for the first time.

Saying the Cub Law & Promise.

Once he had made the promise he was awarded his troop scarf, by the troop scouter. This scarf if unique to their troop 6th Rondebosch Scouts, and distinguishes them from all other troops.

Getting his scarf.

Then it was time to get his badges. He got his scout badge, his district badge, his troop badge and his six badge. (He will still get his swimming and adventure badges which he earned.)

Getting his badges.

Then he was welcomed officially as a cub.

Well done Quinn!
