The scouts are Aidan Oliver, Andrew Benda, Andrew Leavitt, Drew romero, Juan-Carlos Silva, Kyan Monsen, T.J. Buerrero, and Tristing Murguia. Kelton Chamerlain represented Akela and gave each boy an arrow. Dave West is one of their leaders. The Arrow of Light Award is the only patch that boys can earn in cub scouts and wear on their Boy Scout shirt. To earn the Arrow of Light the Webelos scout must be active in his pack, complete 5 activity badges including Fitness, Citizenship, Ready-man,and Outdoors-man and understand the Honesty Character Connection. The scout also goes on an overnight camp or a day hike with his pack to earn the Arrow of Light Badge.
