SueM Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 After several plans and changes of plans..I finally got presented with my beads tonight at our district Recognition dinner!! I have been done since the first of October, but just could not get things to work out with my presenter for other occasions until now. It worked out great though because 2 of my BLT patrol mates, who also did WB with me (though in different patrols) also finished their tickets and were able to get their beads with me, so it made it even more special. All my Beaver patrol mates were in attendance and I got a great new critter to add to my collection. I'm so glad that it finally happened!! Sue M.

t158sm Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Congratulations on a job well done. Wood Badge is a special time, remember it and enjoy fondly. t158sm Some are old, and some are bold, but Wood Badge Owls are good as gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eamonn Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Well Done. While the course has undergone many changes and each country has a different syllabus. It is really neat that the course has been around since 1919. If you ever get the chance to attend the Gilwell reunion at Gilwell Park, don't think about it just go. There is some good information about Wood Badge on: http://www.scoutbase.org.uk/library/hqdocs/facts/pdfs/fs145001.pdf Eamonn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SueM Posted February 20, 2006 Author Share Posted February 20, 2006 Thanks to all for the congrats...I get to wear them for the first time tonight to our troop meeting..I still haven't gotten used to the idea that I actually HAVE them now! It was really just very special to me that the 3 of us did end up being able to do this together...I look back at us 2 years ago when we went through BLT and never expected us to end up where we are today, with 2 of us taking on the role as Scoutmaster's unexpectedly. At the end of the ceremony, Bill just jokingly said "well...What can the 3 of us do together NEXT???" and I told him "Well, Tim and I are on Staff for the next BLT, Tim as SM and me as the SPL..maybe you could join us on staff for that!" so I got a note from him today saying that he would really like to do that and wanted additional information!! I think we've started a tradition! Sue m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
