Boys of Bedford Cub Scout Pack 194 recently had their Blue and Gold event, which celebrates the birth of the Cub Scout Program and the graduation of 5^th grade Webelos from the Pack.

In addition to graduating, many boys crossed over into the Boy Scout Program. A number of the boys in this group also earned Cub Scouting’s highest award, the Arrow of Light. This award takes about a year and a half to complete and includes requirements of earning eight activity badges. This youth award focuses on citizenship and community service, as well as showing knowledge of scouting skills including being familiar with outdoor camping and hiking.

The following boys received the Arrow of Light Award and graduated from the Pack: Nicholas Cobosco, Max Fitzgerald, Maxwell Weisz, Henry Su, Brian Vitale, Vishal Borra, Jack Conley, Kyle McGinn, Nicholas Guetersloh, Quinn Ricci

In addition, Caleb Goldman and Jay Oliver Schwartz were recognized for graduating from the Pack.
