Picnic at the Pops, Grand Rapids Style

Tonight we were at the Grand Rapids Pop's, a fun symphony. This was the 4th of July Tribute and so our troop was asked to provide boys to perform a flag ceremony, lead in the pledge of allegiance and stand at the ready while the "Star Spangled Banner" was sung by an opera type singer, backed up by the incomparable Grand Rapids Symphony. Our boys stepped to the front and it was pretty cool. Unfortunately, I forgot the camera, so I have no pictures, sorry. But trust me, they looked great and it was the motivation to get their sashes, with their badges put on, up to date.

On an unrelated scout note I sent the attached image to someone. What does this creation do? Anyone?


Have a great day!
Pat
