WE'll BE LOyal Scouts

Santa Monica Mayor Ken Genser awards a Commendation to Santa Monica Pack 67 Webelo 1 Den Leader Meighan Maguire at City Hall on Tuesday, December 9, 2008. Webelos 1 Scouts (left to right) Nick Santini, Nick Brandenberg, and Aiden Metz lend their support. The Aims of Cub Scouting is to build character, learn the responsibilities of citizenship, and develop personal fitness. Apart from the fun and excitement of Cub Scout activities, the Cub Scout Promise, the Law of the Pack, and the Cub Scout sign, handshake, motto, and salute all teach good citizenship and contribute to a boy's sense of belonging. Webelos was  an acronym meaning Wolf, Bear, Lion, Scout. It has since come to mean "WE'll BE LOyal Scouts".

I think it's great to see government get involved with scouting activities and honoring those youngsters who do well with it. I actually remember when I had a nearly identical outfit, although it seems like ages ago. Lucky for me, I don't think any photographs of that time period exist :D
