On June 14th, our Pack has been invited to assist Troop 20 in a flag retirement ceremony. This will be at the Kingston Elks Lodge on Hurley Ave. close to Mickey's Igloo, big white building and has BPOE on the front. We will start folding flags and setting up around 5, and the ceremony will be at 6. After the ceremony they will destroy the flags, and usually have hot dogs, and ice cream. Boys should be in Class A. Of course any sibling girl scouts I imagine are welcome too (in uniform). Let me know if you have questions or concerns and I'll do my best to find answers.
As you all know, there is a 'Duty to God' element in every rank. For anyone looking to take the Duty to God a step further (*This is not required!*), I'd encourage you to look into working with your scout on earning the Religious Award for your religion. This is a purple knot your scout can wear on their uniform for the rest of their scouting career; most religions also present the scout with a medal as well. Some religions offer multiple religious awards which can be earned at different stages in their religious education (for example, there are two religious awards Cubs can earn for the Catholic faith, one pre-communion one post).
