Heathen #2 Bridges Over

Another milestone reached for Heathen #2!  He has officially bridged into Boy Scouts, joining the Asst. Zookeeper and Heathen #1 in BSA Troop 217.  Older Scouts from the Troop joined the Pack for the evening to welcome the new members and congratulate them once they crossed the bridge.


Heathen #1 and the Asst. Zookeeper

Heathen #2's den first built the bridge. 
 

The Scouts took turns adding parts to the bridge.

The completed top of the bridge.

 Then it was time to cross to Boy Scouts!

Just before Heathen #2 started over the bridge, we removed his
Webelos neckerchief and slide.

Over the bridge he goes!  The Troop was waiting to welcome him on
the other side - including Heathen #1.

Heathen #2 was a bit nervous waiting for his name
to be called.

Last few minutes as a Cub Scout!

Proudly standing on the bridge, the Zoo's newest Boy Scout!

 The Zoo is now the proud home of a Scoutmaster and TWO Boy Scouts - not to mention the Wolf Cub Scout that is still working his way through the younger ranks!  Well done, Heathen!
