Bobcat Ceremony


Tonight Colin earned his Bobcat badge, along with several other belt loops and awards.

It was also the Tiger Cub Den's turn to lead the flag ceremony. Here is the video of them presenting the colors. Colin was very excited to carry a flag. Listen closely when he asks the crowd to join in The Pledge of Allegiance, he sounded a little nervous!


I did his ceremonial face paint for his Bobcat.


BLUE is from the sky. The paw print of the Bobcat on your forehead is the spirit of the bobcat. This reminds you to do your best on the Cub Scout Trail. 

YELLOW is from the sun. The marks under your eyes will help you see the light of the Cub Scout trail and they symbolize the bright spirit of Cub Scouting. 

WHITE is for purity. The mark on your nose helps you know right from wrong as you go along the Cub Scout trail. 

RED is for courage. The mark on your chin reminds you to always speak the truth. 

GREEN stands for the spirit of nature. The marks on each cheek will guide you to live in harmony with the great outdoors. 


Now he just has to do a good deed to turn around the bobcat badge to right side up and wear it properly!
